## General Information

The non-traversable GH\_BypassPullRequestAllowances edge represents a per-actor allowance that bypasses the pull request review requirement on a branch protection rule. This edge identifies specific users or teams that can merge code without going through the normal PR review process. This is a significant security concern because these actors can push or merge changes directly, circumventing code review controls that protect branch integrity. Note that this bypass is suppressed when `enforce_admins` is enabled on the branch protection rule, meaning even listed actors must follow the PR review requirement.
