Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve

I want a single uninteractive command to delete the local branch when the PR is merged

This, almost works, but has a couple of race conditions

gh pr create --fill-first; sleep 3 && gh run watch --exit-status && gh pr merge --squash --delete-branch --auto

1. The runs might not be available, so we're sleeping first
2. If we watch the wrong run the local branch won't be deleted if there are still runs

Proposed solution

Let's start with I think there are multiple solutions to this, so I'm doing my best to describe the problem more than just the solution

1. I think that there needs to be a gh pr watch --exit-status so that we can watch all the runs related to this pr at once.
2. When running gh pr merge --squash --delete-branch --auto if the merge hasn't been done yet, record some kind of local file queue check, so that the next time gh is run, it'll check and delete the branch if that pr is closed.
3. We also need a gh pr watch <job name> and maybe a gh run watch --latest --job-name <job name>
