Are there any policies/practice around using feature branches? I'm not

doesn't actually send individual "pull requests" - at any one time,
you can have a grand total of 1 pull request outstanding. If I'm
working on a bug fix for bug #1234, is it easier if I make a branch
(eg, bug-1234) first? Does that help anything?
It's good practise, regardless of whether you're making pull requests,
to use feature branches. I'm not quite sure what your situation is,
but I've never come across any limitation on the number of pull
requests that I can have open at the same time.
The limitation is that you can't have more than one pull request on a
given branch, because it doesn't really make any sense as if you push to
a branch that you have opened a pull on then the new commits are added
to that pull.
A pull is a request to pull a branch, not specific commits.
