Originally created by @schorsch13 on GitHub (Feb 1, 2022).

Currently the two repository options Enable Mark PR as manually merged and Enable autodetect manual merge are disabled by default and for many users it is unclear that those options exists. Also these options can lead to problems when manually merging without having those enabled. It will basically break an entire PR and makes it useless.

Also when PRs are disabled entirely and they get turned back on, those option are enabled.

Hi,
Is there any way to set 'Enable manual merge options' by default to True through the config file?

There is not, as far as I know.

Auto-detecting manual merges is also the default on all other forges I have worked with, I agree that it should be enabled by default, or at least be made configurable from the config file.
