This rule will automatically rebase and force-push to pull request branches. While keeping branches up-to-date is beneficial, the automatic force-push can be very disruptive for developers, especially if multiple people are collaborating on the same feature branch.

A force-push rewrites the branch's history, which can cause the following problems for collaborators:

  • Their local branch will diverge from the remote branch.
  • They will need to manually reset their local branch (e.g., with git fetch origin; git reset --hard origin/<branch-name>) to continue working, potentially losing local-only commits if they are not careful.

This can lead to confusion, lost work, and a frustrating developer experience. Please consider the collaboration patterns in this repository. If branches are frequently shared, this automatic action might cause more harm than good.
