β What counts
- Merging a PR that has zero approving reviews.
- Easiest on your own repo where no branch-protection review is required.
πͺ Step-by-step
- On a repo you own, create a branch and make any change. πΏ
git checkout -b yolo echo "You Only Live Once π²" >> README.md git commit -am "docs: yolo" git push -u origin yolo - Open a Pull Request. π
- Merge it immediately β do not request or add a review. β
- Thatβs it β living dangerously pays off. π
β οΈ Note
- On team/shared repos, merging without review bypasses quality gates. Do this on a personal test repo, not on important shared code.
- If the repo has branch protection requiring reviews, you wonβt be able to merge without one β use a fresh personal repo instead.
β³ When it appears
