Terraform Version

0.11.10

Affected Resource(s)

• github_branch_protection

Expected Behavior

A branch protection rule should be created for the branch (or fnmatch wildcard) in question

Actual Behavior

github_branch_protection.release-branch-protection: PUT https://api.github.com/repos/foo/bar/branches/release/protection: 404 Branch not found []

Important Factoids

I wonder if this is a limitation of the github API, the request being sent matches what you'd expect from https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/branches/#update-branch-protection
It is possible to do this from the UI though.
