Keep checks visible while the commit title/description box is open #3435

<!-- 1. Make sure your requested feature makes sense for Refined GitHub: https://github.com/sindresorhus/refined-github/issues/2960 2. Include a full URL where the feature should appear. -->

Would it be possible to allow users who are waiting for checks to succeed before merging (#975) to view the status of the checks while waiting? Right now the merge box is completely grayed out and there's no way to see how the checks are progressing.


Showing the checks while the merge form is open is possible, but I'm not sure if GitHub still updates the status since it expects it to be hidden.

It might look like:

And we could show it if the user clicks the first "Merge button" while the checks are in progress (or always)

That would be cool. If GitHub doesn't update the status, how does Refined GitHub know when the checks are finished?

We look at the last commit pushed, which is always visible, not the "mergeability box".

Worth a try:

  1. Force the mergeability box to be always display: block
  2. Probably scrollIntoViewIfNeeded(commit box)
