When connecting a new distributed site to a central site an issue that could happend accidentally was that the remote site had a pending change in WATO in the moment the central site is establishing the configuration connection.

This resulted in an error message like this during the first activation: "There are 1 pending changes that would get lost".

Since the user already confirms that the site configuration should be overwritten during site login, the step now automatically confirms all pending changes.

Additionally the site login now creates a pending change for the new remote site in the central WATO to trigger an activation for this site after the login even without a configuration change.
