Hi Myrle, It did take around 15 minutes.
Thanks for sharing the recipe for merging <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/Merge+a+pull+request+to+a+mirrored+Apache+repo> code into the mirror. But I wanted to close some of the PRs first before working on merging some of the branches. Can you share a recipe / link / access rights / hub command for this as well? If the effort isn't too much, can we consider moving Fineract to Gitbox as well? With best regards, Avik.
