Hi LinkinStar,

I’m currently digging through a huge pile of stuff, as I was on holidays for 
almost a week and I had done some open-source detox ;-)

Will try to squeeze it in …

Hi Christofer Dutz,

We also find this very strange, just like what tison encountered last time.
Even more, we try to use the command line to merge and it works fine, but
GitHub's UI prompts an error. But this problem doesn't come up every time.
We can provide the PR link the next time I encounter this issue.

By the way, I have a little request for help. Could you help us by voting
for the Release Apache Answer(Incubating) v1.3.0-RC1[1]?

Best regards,
LinkinStar
