+ [2020-06-08T01:58:29Z] zeromus how are you folks doing irc notifications (issues, pushes, etc.) nowadays? from what I can tell the old easy mode bot was deprecated and I now have to custom-assemble integrations from 'actions'?
+ [2016-12-18T21:42:36Z] zeromus ok you win
+ [2016-12-18T21:40:40Z] zeromus 'just because i want to' is a fine answer in this case, but there may be more advice for you if you have a different answer for: why do you want to do this
+ [2016-12-18T21:39:39Z] zeromus but itseasier still just to click on the website
+ [2016-12-18T21:39:26Z] zeromus it's probably easier for a git noob to just clone the branch than it is to add another remote
+ [2016-12-18T21:37:47Z] zeromus but i guess newbie can use some tips for how this apparently doesnt annoy literally everyone else
+ [2016-12-18T21:37:15Z] zeromus anyway i dont subscribe to this automatic "lets backtrack and solve your problem a different way" philosophy. you only apply that when someone expresses a lot of profound confusion and ignorance.
+ [2016-12-18T21:36:30Z] zeromus well, thats why i've wanted it before. i didnt realize it but ive manually navigated like he's objecting to doing
+ [2016-12-18T21:35:59Z] zeromus maybe he likes the repo browser view for understanding the differences in the PR, instead of the commits list or the files changed view which can't even function with more than a few hundred lines
+ [2016-12-18T21:34:13Z] zeromus no, it means in the header for the PR. "user wants to merge 1 commit into myrepo:mybranch from hisrepo:hisbranch"
+ [2016-12-18T21:33:25Z] zeromus well, heres one tidbit for you. i think a PR in github is exactly equal to the differences between the two branches--and theres no way around that. so you're looking at all the differences in the branch, in the PR.
+ [2016-12-18T21:32:27Z] zeromus i think he wants the marked-up links to branches in other repos in the PR to be links and not just marked-up text
+ [2016-12-18T21:32:03Z] zeromus im no expert but i was unable to find a way to do it either.
+ [2016-12-17T23:05:54Z] zeromus githubs is pretty neat, it just lacks the key piece i need. guess my best move is to suggest it and wait
+ [2016-12-17T23:05:33Z] zeromus unfortunately these kanbans are designed for rapid dispatch for teams that are actually going to solve stuff, not long-term organization
+ [2016-12-17T22:57:12Z] zeromus but i may have done it wrong
+ [2016-12-17T22:52:07Z] zeromus except it doesnt seem it can get to organization projects
+ [2016-12-17T22:51:56Z] zeromus this 'sweepboard' site shows me a view of all my issues automatically sorted into columns by label, along with a leftmost unlabeled column. i assume ill be able to drag them to other columns to label them. easy! oversimplified for what a lot of people will want, but pretty good for me.
+ [2016-12-17T22:48:13Z] zeromus then i only have to remember to visit my bookmark for the custom filter every time
+ [2016-12-17T22:47:54Z] zeromus however i havent been able to find that filter. guess i could go ask for it
