User reviews

For me it doesn't update either the first time I enter the PR page on Github - I need to reload the page to make it work and then the text disappears. Looks promising, but not quite there yet apparently.

Exactly what I needed. To any especially wary devs, the author has been kind enough to publish the source of this extension, allowing it to be audited for piece of mind: https://github.com/santiagotoscanini/no-merge-squash-extension Greatly appreciated.

Sorely needed! This extension is a sorely needed feature that I think we all wish GH would natively implement. I left a 3 star rating because this plugin does not block squash the first time I enter the PR page. If I press refresh, then it will have removed the option.
