Test the merge in a build initiated by a pull request

Are builds initiated by "pull requests" merged before the build? It looks like they aren't.

In others build systems, the build is done using the result of the merge between origin and the upstream branch.

    Yeah, AppVeyor fetches virtual merge commit created by GitHub and you should see these two additional commands in the build log:

    git fetch -q origin +refs/pull/{number}/merge:
    git checkout -qf FETCH_HEAD

    Right, I see this command in the logs.

    But, in a pull request that can't be automatically merged, it built using the commit ("git checkout -qf xyz123..."). Is this the expected thing? I thought the build would fail, as it can't merge the source.

    No, it's not expected. Are you sure it was triggered by PR webhook event? You may check "Recent deliveries" of project webhook in GitHub to see what was request and AV response. Also send me AV project name and build version to check in database.

    Yesterday we deployed an update that should reliably prevent starting builds for non-mergeable PRs.

    Looks like this update corrected the problem. Now it is working as expected.

    Thank you.
