hello,

in gitea 1.23.7, we have protected branches that require approval to be validated.  
But in the latest version a red button is present even though the number of approvals has not been reached.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/gitea/original/2X/5/5ed058c07f3fdb244c437c74352ce7392d09bebe.png)  
Users are not administrators. in version 1.22.x users couldn’t pass the restrictions. it’s a bad configuration or a bug.

thanks in advance for your help.

Best regard.

The problem is solved, the red button appears but now it programs the merge automatically when the conditions are validated. he is not immediately excuted as the administrator
