### Notes
1. Label color can also start with `#`, e.g. `color: '#F341B2'`. Make sure to wrap it with quotes!
1. Each top-level element under branch protection must be filled (eg: `required_pull_request_reviews`, `required_status_checks`, `enforce_admins` and `restrictions`). If you don't want to use one of them you must set it to `null` (see comments in the example above). Otherwise, none of the settings will be applied.

### Inheritance

This app is built with [probot](https://github.com/probot/probot), and thus uses the [octokit-plugin-config](https://github.com/probot/octokit-plugin-config). This means you can inherit settings from another repo, and only override what you want to change.

This means you can inherit settings from another repo, and only override what you want to change.

Individual settings in the arrays listed under `labels`, `teams` (once it is supported) and `branches` will be merged with the base repo if the `name` of an element in the array matches the `name` of an element in the corresponding array in the base repo. A possible future enhancement would be to make that work for the other settings arrays based on `username`, or `title`. This is not currently supported.

This is not currently supported.

To further clarify: Inheritance within the Protected Branches plugin allows you to override specific settings per branch. For example, your `.github` repo may set default protection on the `master` branch. You can then include `master` in your `branches` array, and only override the `required_approving_review_count`.

For example, your `.github` repo may set default protection on the `master` branch.
You can then include `master` in your `branches` array, and only override the `required_approving_review_count`.
Alternatively, you might only have a branch like `develop` in your `branches` array, and would still get `master` protection from your base repo.
