Merge PRs via GitHub web UI

[Ivan Pavlukhin]

Hi Igniters,

I find merging PRs using GitHub web UI quite handy. AFAIK it is
possible to merge AI PR in this way. But I heard some rumors that
there were some problems with squashing such merges leading to commits
with multiple parents in master

From recent there is one commit [1] but I am not sure that GitHub
merge caused it.

So, my general question is as follows. Should we merge PRs via GitHub
web UI or should we avoid it?

[1] https://github.com/apache/ignite/commit/22652aa9883cfa3fd020658bcb230cea9ea6e4d4

Hello!

I always use scripts/apply-pull-request.sh

The only downside that it will fail unrecoverably if there are any
conflicts.

If it was really GitHub problem — it is still single incident among many tens of merges every day.
Manual merge after review would more erroneous I guess.

It seems that the majority of recent commits were made manually. If I
am not mistaken there should be a badge with a green text "Verified"
near a commit if it was made via GitHub web UI. And currently I see
only a few such commits.

Hi Ivan, Igniters,

Merge PRs via GitHub is the greatest change that Infra did recently.

You can merge PRs without changing your local project state, and which is
why I believe is an absolutely positive thing for the community. Committers
can do a review-merge while waiting for tests run, doing a big feature
locally: any activity they have locally does not affect review now.

Sincerely,
Dmitriy Pavlov

Dmitriy,

Yes, I agree that it is a totally great feature! But I would like to
be sure that it does no harm.

BTW, I use a copy of git repo on my machine to deal with merges
without touching my working tree.
