I have the impression this problem only pops up with older PRs, but I'm not entirely sure that's the case...

One more data point: merging easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs#12803 with eb --merge-pr 12803 worked fine.

Another data point: easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs#13393 with eb --merge 13393 failed.

[boegel]

I've just merged easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs#13393 with eb --merge-pr (no --force), which was failing before. That suggests to me this may have been a problem on the GitHub side after all...

[verdurin]

I haven't seen it recently, for whatever that's worth.

[boegel]

@verdurin Can you try again with easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs#8719?

[verdurin]

Done - it worked this time.

[boegel]

In that case, I consider this fixed on the GitHub side somewhere, so I'll close this issue...
