Clone step: refusing to merge unrelated histories

When pushing a commit to a branch that is associated with a pull request, during the clone step, git merge errors with fatal: refusing to merge unrelated histories. Has anyone else experienced this?

Initialized empty Git repository in /drone/src/.git/

5 * branch master -> FETCH_HEAD
6 * [new branch] master -> origin/master

8 + git checkout master
9 Branch 'master' set up to track remote branch 'master' from 'origin'.
10 Already on 'master'

The solution to this, by @leoxiongideahq:

We’ve fixed it by removing the clone depth limit. It was previously set to 1 for a shallow clone.

Tried it and worked for me too.
