Support moving PRs

Open alanjds opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

I would expect PRs to be moved also, not only issues.

@alanjds Thanks for the feedback, but you'll have to explain further why PRs should be cloned. In my mind, a PR is intrinsically tied to the repo from which it was created. If I make a PR for Repo A, I'm saying I want to perform a code based merge action from one branch to another. A PR is much more than a description of text, it's a request to merge code.

Exactly.

I am, with some more people, hard-forking https://github.com/google/grumpy to https://github.com/grumpyhome/grumpy because the former stalled.

There, 21 PRs full of comments got left without following answers. I want to clone this all to the new repo that inherits the same base one, then fix/review the PRs and merge some of it.

I understand. I'll have to do some looking but I don't think this is necessarily complex. Kamino doesn't currently clone comments on even issues right now, so that will be another thing to consider. I'll tag this as investigating, but if you or anyone else wants to tackle it with a PR, that's fine as well. Otherwise, I'll start the initial work on it as I have time.

Thanks for answering.

To be transparent, Javascript is not my main language. For a bulk transfer as I need, maybe https://github.com/IQAndreas/github-issues-import suites better. Anyway, lets see what the other Grumpyhome devs says.
