Deploy environment - wrong branch

I have this project with 3 environments, each one connected to its branch.
Today I merged a pull request (#90) on my "staging" branch, but something wrong happened.
As we can see on the print screen, the "main" environment deployed the branch from the pull request (#90) that was merged only into "staging".
I only noticed it after a couple of hours when the users notified me that they were having difficulty in some process.
What can I do to avoid it?
This never happened before.
I noticed some instability on railway during the deployment on staging, but I didn't imagined that this could affect the main environment.

b2f0a0fd-8a18-47c3-8cf3-ce912b1ef77bforgive me for asking but are you sure you didn't merge into main by accident?
Yes I am. I just restarted the application and it came back to PR 88.
I think it is clear on the screenshots that shows the "history deploys"... There you can see that there was a build after pr 90 merged on "staging", 2 hours later I restarted and it runned on pr 88
It should only show builds after pr merged on branch main, not staging
The pr #89 was merged on develop, and runned correctly, only on develop environment.
The last merge into main was 2 days ago.
okay thank you the extra context
is it possible you temporarily switched the deployment branch to staging? check your project activity logs
I sent the print in the first message (2nd image) showing the branch the environment is connected to.
I never changed it.
But as I said, while the deploy was happening, the dashboard was going through something, it was very slow on loading. I thought it was my internet, I changed my DNS , cleaned my cash to ensure that wasn't anything here
I couldn't find any activity logs that show anything about changing environment / branch links
On activity logs, we can see the deployment 2 days ago
The 7 hours ago (wrong deploy)
After that I restarted, and while I didn't get what was happening, I tried to change an environment variable , I thought it was something related to it, but after that I saw the pr stuff and rollback the environment variable
Nothing about changing the branch like
alright thanks for all the info, this does seem like a glitch from railway, i will escalate and hopefully they can shed some light on why this happened and why this would be unlikely to happen again
