Dennis, you can take PRs as patches from GH by appending “.patch” or “.diff” to PR URL, here is your example:
https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/apache/maven-plugins/pull/48.diff Then, apply that patch “manually” to sources and then commit. Is a bit hassle but that’s all to it. Having all this in git would be way more simpler.

In this case I unfortunatelly cannot use those instructions as maven-plugins does not have a git repo at Apache. It is versioned in svn and is probably using some svn->git mirroring software to end up on the GitHub mirror at https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins Do you know if the Apache GitHub repo is read-only? Would it be possible to merge the PR at GitHub and get that commit propagated back to our canonical svn repo? If I understand your instructions correctly the modifications goes something like this: contributor branch@github --> git-wip-us.apache.org --> Apache GitHub mirror What I think that I need is this: contributor branch@github --> Apache GitHub mirror --> svn.apache.org On Fri, May 29, 2015 at 9:38 AM, Stevo Slavić <[email protected]> wrote: > On Apache Mahout project we have nice docs on the workflow to merge or > reject PRs submitted to github mirror.
