title: Only create unmergeable todos once when MR fails to merge
merge_request:
author:
Only create unmergeable todos once Previously, we created an unmergeable todo when a merge request: 1. Had merge when pipeline succeeds set. 2. Became unmergeable. However, when merge when pipeline succeeds fails due to unmergeability, the flag isn't actually removed. And a merge request can become unmergeable multiple times, as every time the target branch is updated we need to re-check the mergeable status. This means that if the todo was marked done, and the MR was checked again, a new todo would be created for the same event. Instead of checking this, we should create the todo from the service responsible for merging when the pipeline succeeds. That way the todo is guaranteed to only be created when we care about it. 2017-02-24 10:56:41 -05:00			`---`
