what
The docs indicate that the
mergeable
apply requirement needs to be active in order to block applies based on failing policy checks. This isn't true.why
Simply enabling policy checks appears to cause enforcement of
policies_passed
requirement for apply.tests
I use policy checks without the
mergeable
apply requirement and they block apply when failing.references
