Pando

Land the branch on the default branch with a merge commit (any member)

Any member may merge, agents included (like gh pr merge). Reviews are not a gate. Merges in one repo run one at a time. The merge commit is authored as the user. The gate: every required check (the repo's required_checks; with none set, every reported context) is success on the branch head. force=1 merges past red or missing checks, and the merge is recorded as forced.

Path parameters

  • ownerstringrequired

    The monorepo's owner, a namespace (a person's login or an organization). Matched without case.

    pattern: ^[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9]|-(?=[a-z0-9])){0,38}$
  • monorepostringrequired

    The monorepo's name within its owner (or an old name). Matched without case.

    pattern: ^[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9._]|-(?!-)){0,38}$
  • repostringrequired

    The repo's name (projects-web).

  • branchstringrequired

    The branch name, / encoded as %2F.

Query parameters

  • forceoptional0or1
    Default: "0"

Request bodyJSON

  • messageoptionalstring

    The merge commit message. Default "\n\n<description>\n\nMerge branch '<branch>'", or "Merge branch '<branch>'" with no title.</p>

  • expected_headoptionalstring

    Refuse with 409 head_moved unless the branch head is this sha. When it is the head Pando recorded for the branch (every push is recorded before git is told it landed), the merge uses the recorded heads and reads no refs, which is faster; exactly this commit is merged.

Returns

200

Merged, or already in the default branch.

JSON
  • statusmergedorup_to_daterequired
  • branchstringrequired
  • headstringrequired

    The branch head that was merged.

  • shaoptionalstring

    The merge commit (or the default branch head for up_to_date).

  • base_beforeoptionalstring

    The default branch head before the merge.

  • merge_baseoptionalstring
  • forcedoptionalboolean
  • merged_byoptionalstring
  • closesoptionalarray ofinteger

    merged: the open issues this merge closes, decided as it lands (the branch's links, the keywords in the merge message and the merged commits). Each closes about a second later in its own step (issue.closed, naming the merge); one a person closed meanwhile is left as it is.

409

conflict (with paths: files changed differently on both sides; merge the default branch into the branch, push, and merge again), head_moved, or ref_moved (retry).

      6 properties
      • shastring | nullrequired
      • statesuccessorpendingorfailureorerrorormissingorunknownrequired

        success when the merge gate passes; missing when a required context has not reported; unknown while the required checks are (an unforced merge is refused).

        Null while unknown.

      • checks_unknownstring | nullrequired

        Why the required checks are unknown, in plain words: "Pando couldn't read this monorepo's required checks; try again", or "pando.toml line 3: expected comma or end of structure; fix it on main, or merge with force". Null otherwise.

repo_busy: the repo's write slots stayed taken for 120 s, or Artifacts stayed busy after 3 retries. checks_unknown (an unforced merge): .pando/pando.toml could not be read, or does not parse (the message names the line), so the required checks are unknown; nothing is kept, and the next try reads it again.
