Won't run merge check pipeline

Joshua_3lmtxr

Below is a snapshot of my `bitbucket-pipelines.yml` file. I'm trying to run a gate prior merging into main.

However, this will not run. (My trunk is `main`, but I've also tried with `master`.) What gives?

 

```yml

definitions:

  steps:

    - step: &test-ci

         name: Run unit tests (linting - warnings allowed)

         script:

           - yarn install

           - yarn lint:ci

           - yarn test:ci

    - step: &test-merge

         name: Run unit tests (linting - warnings not allowed)

         script:

           - yarn install

           - yarn lint:clean

           - yarn test:ci

pipelines:

  pull-requests:

    main:

      - step: *test-merge

  branches:

    main:

      - step: *test-merge

    "**":

      - step: *test-ci
```

Sadly, this was answered here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55019205/how-to-run-pipeline-only-on-pull-request-to-master-branch

 

Definitely, not the "gate" I was looking for to protect the main branch.
