Branches are marked as 'merged' even if they are not
I created a MR from an issue, but after a while I decided to close the MR because it was not actively developed.
At that point, I realized there was no way to delete the branch after the close, so I went to the branches page to manually delete it. The branch was there, but marked as merged
. The MR had no commits, so the base
of the MR was a merge commit from a previous MR.
