I have released a new version of a package using Registrator (web interface). One of the checks on JuliaRegistries failed (I needed to specify a compat range). In order for the PR not to be auto-merged in the meantime, I commented on the PR.

How do I now signal that the PR is eligible for auto-merge again? Is this possible at all or do I need human involvement?

I’ve read elsewhere that you can edit your comments to be non-blocking, i.e. add `[noblock]` to them.

This is exactly correct.

We should document this better. Would someone like to make a PR to the General registry README?
