This is huge. With Hack Club (https://github.com/hackclub/hackclub https://github.com/hackclub/hackclub) we get a fair amount of PRs from beginners that have one or two minor issues.
We eventually gave up trying to get beginners to fix their pull requests and would manually pull their work to our personal forks, fix it, and then open up new pull requests.
Very excited to see this fixed.
- labster 10y agoIt was always possible to send PRs into other PRs, because a pull request is just a branch attached to an issue tracker. I've done it before, but not with newbies. This looks like a nice improvement to the interface, though.
- zachlatta 10y agoYeah, we started by trying that. To be frank, it turned into a clusterfuck pretty quickly because most beginners that send PRs our way don't understand their internals (i.e. that PRs are linked to branches).
