Hi,
The workflow that Julian mentioned is better than what we are doing
right now. As Harshad pointed out, we were thinking that it was against
Apache policy.

Hi Julian,
No, there's no such policy. I think majority of the contributors use
their individual GitHub accounts and also initiate pull request from
the same. Some of us started with the practice of using Apache repo
and continue to do so. If using individual GitHub accounts is
preferred we all can switch to that mode.

Regarding my other point: does Quickstep have a policy that pull
requests should, or must, come from the Apache github account? If so,
can you see how that would tend to discourage people from joining the
community? Because only committers are able to push to Apache.
Several projects use "feature branches", where multiple developers
need to collaborate over a long period, and of course a branch or tag
per release, but other than that, branches in the Apache repo are
quite unusual.

Thanks Julian, your suggestion worked!

If I recall, there is an issue with Apache-github integration that
a branch only shows up when you make a commit on it. So maybe make
a trivial commit.
That said, you don’t need to push a branch to Apache in order to
make a pull request. You can make a pull request from your own
personal GitHub fork. That’s usually the right thing to do.

Hello,
I pushed a branch (named auto-worker-pinning) to the apache
repository 11 hours ago. That branch is still not showing up on
the GitHub mirror. Has any one else experienced similar issue?
Without the branch showing up on GitHub, I can't create a pull
request for it.
