Hello @guymatz

I noticed this was posted as an issue; it's actually a perfect question for the PyGitHub Discussions Q&A section. Where you can ask the community for help

Stack Overflow is also a good place for reaching a broader audience with the pygithub tag.

Issues are best reserved for bug reports or feature suggestions, helping maintainers or people looking into issues to contribute solutions to prioritize development work. As PyGithub is seeking new maintainers, #2205

To answer your question:

It's possible to check if a branch has been merged:

• For a PR check the merged_at field in the response.
• For a branch you can do it this way:

base = "main"
head = "your_branch"

comparison = repo.compare(base, head)

That's using this endpoint

Yes, of course. Sorry! Thanks!!
