• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCTS_GITHUB_API007 - Pull Request is not mergeable (sha: &1) ?

  The SAP error message SCTS_GITHUB_API007 indicates that a pull request (PR) in GitHub is not mergeable. This typically occurs when there are conflicts between the branch you are trying to merge and the target branch, or when the target branch has changes that are not present in the branch of the pull request.
  Causes:
  
  Merge Conflicts: The most common reason for this error is that there are conflicting changes between the pull request branch and the target branch. This can happen if both branches have been modified in the same lines of code or files.
  Outdated Branch: The branch from which the pull request is created may be outdated compared to the target branch. If new commits have been added to the target branch after the pull request was created, it may lead to merge conflicts.
  Branch Protection Rules: If the target branch has branch protection rules that prevent merging under certain conditions (e.g., requiring all checks to pass), this could also lead to the pull request being non-mergeable.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Resolve Merge Conflicts:
  
  Check the pull request on GitHub for any merge conflict notifications.
  Pull the latest changes from the target branch into your local branch.
  Resolve any conflicts in your code editor.
  Commit the resolved changes and push them back to the pull request branch.
  
  
  
  Update the Pull Request Branch:
  
  If the pull request branch is outdated, you can rebase or merge the latest changes from the target branch into your pull request branch.
  Use the following commands in your terminal:
  git checkout your-feature-branch
  git fetch origin
  git merge origin/target-branch
  
  Resolve any conflicts, commit the changes, and push to the remote branch.
  
  
  
  Check Branch Protection Rules:
  
  Review the branch protection rules set on the target branch in the GitHub repository settings.
  Ensure that all required checks (like CI/CD pipelines) are passing before attempting to merge.
