Optional 'branch protection rule'

Is it possible to disable kodiak being blocked by branch protection rules?

Basically, I would like to use kodiak for private repo, but for those one can not enable branch protection rules without upgrading. It would be nice to allow kodiak to run without setting branch protection rules

Kodiak's configuration is basically tied to GitHub Branch Protection rules and the mergability checks wouldn't work without Branch Protection rules.

Thank you for the answer and great package, @chdsbd.

For those in need for a solution for private repos I found https://github.com/ahmadnassri/action-dependabot-auto-merge working quite alright :)

Does this action also take care of auto rebasing out-of-date dependabot PRs? So far (without Kodiak), I've had to comment each PR with "@dependabot rebase" myself, to kickstart the rebase process...
