Sync branches via REST API

When viewing a branch the bitbucket UI provides a text with handy link “179 commits behind “release/my-next-release-name”. Sync now”. I would like to implement similar “sync” functionality via the REST API. From what I can see my only option is to open a PR and merge it. However, due to PR merge checks I’m unable to use this path. Is there a REST API endpoint I’m missing that will preform the same functionality or is it planned?

I’ve found https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BCLOUD-20489. Looks like this has been a request for along time now. :frowning:
