PR overview remains stuck checking mergeability after an UNKNOWN response

• Extension version: 0.166.0 and 0.167.2026091104 (pre-release)
• VSCode Version: 1.137.0
• OS: macOS 26.6.2 (25G83), arm64
• Repository Clone Configuration: Single repository
• GitHub Product: GitHub.com

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open a repository containing an open pull request.
2. Open the pull request description from the GitHub Pull Requests view while GitHub reports its mergeability as UNKNOWN, such as immediately after creating or updating the pull request.
3. Scroll to the merge-status section and wait for GitHub to finish calculating mergeability.

Expected:

The extension polls again and replaces “Checking if this branch can be merged...” with the calculated mergeability status.

Actual:

“Checking if this branch can be merged...” remains indefinitely, even after GitHub.com and the GitHub API report the pull request as mergeable.

The polling code receives an object shaped like { mergeability, conflicts }, but passes the entire object to setMergeability():

const newMergeability = await checkMergeability();
setMergeability(newMergeability);

It should use:

setMergeability(newMergeability.mergeability);

Related: #4118 reported the same symptom but was closed before this response-shape regression was introduced.

Lokalisieren Sie den Polling-Code, der checkMergeability() und setMergeability() aufruft, und untersuchen Sie anschließend, wie die Mergeability-Antwort an die merge-status-Ansicht übergeben wird. Aktualisieren Sie die Verarbeitung so, dass die berechnete Mergeability den unbestimmten Prüfstatus ersetzt, und überprüfen Sie, dass die Pull-Request-Übersicht aktualisiert wird, nachdem GitHub einen aufgelösten Status zurückgibt.
