Is it possible to prevent circumventing the mergeable rule for applying a plan in GitHub?

[wsams]

Hello, I set up an Atlantis instance that requires a PR to be mergeable before running 'apply'.

However, if I create a branch "A" of "master", then another branch "B" from "A", "B" can be merged into "A" without approval. And therefore I can apply plans without approval. I'm currently only protecting the "master" branch (requires approval).

Is there a way to prevent this kind of scenario? I think I would need to protect all branches. Any ideas or thoughts on this problem?

Thanks,
Weldon

Basically you want to be able to restrict that applies only happen for PRs that are merging into your default branch (or some set of branches). AFAIK, this is not configurable in Atlantis, so ya, this sounds like a good feature to add.

I think this addresses it no? #1383

Hi @nishkrishnan , I believe that does solve the issue. I misunderstood how branch functions. I haven't tested, but after looking over #1383 I'll go ahead and close this issue.

Many thanks,
