Jacques Erasmusrequested to merge
duo-edit-20251105-234151 into master

What does this MR do and why?

Documents the new "Default" option for branch-level squash settings introduced in !211017 (merged).

This option allows users to reset branch-level squash settings to inherit from project defaults, addressing the issue described in #575818.

Documentation changes

Updates the "Edit squash commits option" section in doc/user/project/repository/branches/branch_rules.md to:

  • Document the new "Default" option
  • Explain that it removes branch-level overrides and inherits from project settings
  • Note that "Default" is not available for "All branches" rule (which defines project defaults)
