I have a three-step branch setup in my repository:
DEV -> UAT -> MasterSource.
I merged Dev to UAT last week with no issues.
Today I merged UAT to MasterSource and suddenly both DEV and UAT closed as a result. I may have neglected to check the close source branch checkbox on the UAT branch, but I am not sure why DEV closed as a result of that if I did (I did not touch DEV today).
My first question would be why DEV is closed (assuming that I checked the close UAT branch checkbox).
My second question is if I can reopen them. All the help articles I find tell me to sync them from my origin source, but the files in my origin source are identical to branch files, so I get "zero files synced" result and no changes in branch status.
The branches are accessible and visible, but closed.
