Hi, GitHub Copilot coding agents are making their ways into our workflows. Interaction with Graphite has a few pain points, one was brought up
here.
Another one I think is a bug in graphite:
• GitHub correctly detects that the only approval to the PR submitted by copilot is by the human co-author, and requires one more approval
• Graphite is happy with that one approval and allows merging (warning that I'm not the author of the PR, which is also slightly off)
With Graphite protections going away, I think it becomes even more important that if GitHub says a PR cannot be merged, Graphite honors that.
EDIT:
