Matt Sturgeon	In reply to @joerg:thalheim.io @mattsturg:matrix.org: if you go to the eval build step, there is a restart button after github login When I tried that for a merge group, I got: `fatal: couldn't find remote ref gh-readonly-queue/nixos-25.05/pr-3724-a30decbd5fc231e84dfefeb75bc7f57d8167726c` Because GitHub cleans up the merge group ref when it is dequeued, which happens as soon as it receives the failed status check.	10:45:20
Matt Sturgeon	(maybe buildbot should fetch the actual git object instead of fetching by reference to avoid this failure mode?)	10:46:22
Mic92	In reply to @mattsturg:matrix.org (maybe buildbot should fetch the actual git object instead of fetching by reference to avoid this failure mode?) Fetching by git commit is not a supported feature of the protocol	11:02:44
Mic92	However we should not cache fetch errors in the first place	11:03:21
