still runs all the checks (GHA) on merge group (PR enters merge queue) even if the PR is up to date - so we double up on CI - I think even if the queue is empty, definitely if a PR is removed from the queue
https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/43988 - the issue has been closed and is apparently “exploratory” → https://github.com/github/roadmap/issues/824#issuecomment-2501843484
GHA status not reported even though all workflows are complete and appear successful
had to alter branch protection rules - merge queue creates temporary branches with a special prefix to validate pull request changes and we had a catchall branch protection disallowing force pushes to any branches. more info
had to add “on merge” event for GHA workflows to be able to run required checks - more info
Update - Tried merge queue again since it’s out of beta and there’s a lot of approved PRs to merge
