How to tell for a pull request whether close-branch was selected

Question

I know how to select "close branch" when I create a pull request (and I usually do!).  When looking at someone else's pull request in Bitbucket, is there a way to tell whether or not "close branch" was selected for that pull request?  I'm not sure how to tell when looking at a pull request whether the branch will close on merge.  Thanks!

Hello @Aimee Willoz,

Thanks for reaching out.

No, I believe this property is not reflected on the pull request page, however it is shown in the merge dialog (when you click Merge, you'll see the dialog first). Moreover, this property can be changed in that dialog just before the merge. So the final decision is up to the person who merges the pull request.

May I ask what is the use case you need this information for?

Cheers,
Daniil
