Recently a new Merge button has started appearing in the Development section in Jira issues where there is an associated feature branch in Bitbucket.

The button appears late, a number of seconds after the issue has loaded and as a result the entire view moves down and instead of clicking to view a pull request, you end up clicking Merge.

How can we remove this Merge option, but leave the previous Branch, Commits, Pull Request options in place?

You can disable it in your personal settings. It's provided by Jira Labs.

 

I similarly found that it was very easy to click on this when I was trying to follow the link to the PR itself whilst the page was still loading...

Hi @Kent Muller and welcome,

for my knowledge, you can't disable that specific button. It will appear for users that have write permission on the linked repo on bitbucket side. It is an useful feature for developers.

Hope this helps,

Fabio
