Description

The readme says that "The configuration must be on the default branch" for this to work. It'd be good if the docs could cover how one is supposed to deploy this to a repo where changes have to go the default branch via PR. Is that possible? or should the admin with access to the default branch add the config? what happens while the config is still on a PR branch?

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start with the README passage stating that configuration must be on the default branch. Check the documented deployment behavior for configuration kept on a pull request branch, then update the relevant documentation to explain whether an administrator must add it to the default branch and what users should expect before it is merged.
