Bug Description

I have no idea what the behaviour is, but from looking at the code, merge proposals flat out won't work with package branches.

I would say that having sensible behaviour would be a blocker for deployment.

For the first cut sensible could very well be "merge proposals for source package
branches are not supported at this time". An OOPS wouldn't be *that* bad. Creating
a merge proposal that then couldn't be used would be bad in my opinion.

Thanks,

James

OK. I'll do some experiments and find out what the behaviour is.

Right now, there are no links to make a merge proposal on the branch page, URL hacking 404s and we raise an error if you try to merge it from a branch that does support merge proposals.

That sounds good enough for me until we have a good solution.

Thanks for investigating.
