Conversation
pulls.merge() defaults to a merge commit, which 405s
("Merge commits are not allowed on this repository") on any repo
configured to disallow them, e.g. apify/apify-ai-agent. Read the
repo's allowed merge methods and pick the first available, merge
preferred so unaffected callers keep today's behavior.

What
sync_branches.yaml's merge step now reads the repo's allowed mergemethods (
allow_merge_commit/allow_squash_merge/allow_rebase_merge)and passes the first available as
merge_method, preferringmergesoexisting callers see no behavior change.
Why
pulls.merge()defaults to a merge commit. On any repo configured todisallow merge commits the API 405s with "Merge commits are not allowed
on this repository", and the sync job fails outright — no PR ever gets
merged, so the branches drift.
Hit in apify/apify-ai-agent: apify/apify-ai-agent#81 failed on this,
went stale/conflicting, worked around manually in
apify/apify-ai-agent#82.
Testing
No test harness covers the embedded
github-scriptblock. Verified thescript is syntactically valid (
node --check) and diffed the changedown to a 15-line, backward-compatible addition.
