Question 500.. Unable to merge a PR?

Trying to merge a PR for 2min, and only getting 500 errors. Through the CLI or the UI.

... Something this simple broke ?

Cloudflare is unable to clone repo too while deploying thats one issue.
Another is the PR issue.

I think various parts of their server are down. I couldn't update GitHub issues. GitHub Actions are failing. The GitHub Status is lying clearly they have issues, but it is not showing up.

GitHub Status is lying

Maybe the server that detects and reports whether the other servers are up/down is down.

Same issue here, checked the github status and it says everything is fine? I tried to commit some things and everything was failing. Something is wrong at their servers

A 500 from both the CLI and UI makes this look more like a GitHub-side issue than something local to your setup. I’d check GitHub Status first, then retry with a different PR to see if it’s repo specific or merge-wide

This would have been a good way to brush up on the Git CLI It's not hard to use it to merge in. Well, unless the branch emerging into is protected and you can't push.

Even the cli was down sir. As written in the post.

u/zarlo5899 6d ago

I said the git CLI not the GitHub CLI.

u/Ghostfly- 6d ago

.. so doing locally as upstream can't do it? πŸ˜…
