Missing support for merge queues

[koppor]

Version

0.12.16

Operating System

Windows

Distribution Method

msi (Windows)

Describe the issue

If a repository has merge queues enabled, GitButler should NOT show direct merge possibilities (to avoid the user accidently bypassing the merge queue)

How to reproduce

1. Ensure that the branch protection rules enable the merge queue
   
2. Create a PR
3. See that GitButler offers "Merge pull request"
   

Expected behavior

GitButler should offer "Add to merge queue"

Relevant log output

No response

BTW, GitHub shows "Merging is blocked"

Thanks a lot for reporting!

@ndom91 might have some experience with this.

@koppor wuoldn't a PR be automatically added to the merge queue no matter which of those options you select and your repository has merge queues enabled?

I need to click "Merge when ready" (because I did not activate auto merge. AFAIK this needs some extra work)

Okay gotcha. So some quick googling seems to indicate that GitHub hasn't added support to their REST API /Octokit for merge queues. They did however add support for them to their GraphQL API a few months ago (Source).

Do you happen to know any more about their API support for merge queues?

Unfortunately, I know barley anything about the API. Just using the Java library for interaction.... 😅 I checked the JavaDoc. Only one hit for Merge Queue (the event. Nothing relevant for the issue).

Okay yeah then unfortunately it doesn't seem like it's well supported by GitHub yet. But as soon as it is, I agree - it'd be nice for us to support those actions.
