Merge settings

[widgets.github-inbox]
refresh_interval_minutes = 5
merge_method = "squash"
confirm_merge = false

Automatic checks run every 5 minutes by default; refresh_interval_minutes accepts values from 5 minutes to 7 days. Supported merge methods are merge, squash, and rebase. confirm_merge = false performs the merge after the readiness check; set it to true to require a second action. The merge settings can also be changed from the inbox source menu.

The source context menu shows the active refresh interval.

The standalone popup presentation is the github package.
