    yeah, I’ve seen this bs multiple times now. Also tired of github rewriting commits and changing hashes when they can just be fastforwrded onto the merging branch. So for a while now I almost exclusively use the command line to merge.

      Would really prefer they didn’t have these buttons, if they’re not implemented correctly. Similarly, there’s a setting to uses rebases throughout the UI instead of merge commits. And it works everywhere, except when updating PR branch. It has a button “Update branch”, which does the wrong thing, with a dropdown where you can select “Rebase branch” instead. So many times, I’ve had to tell people to not click that button…
