Every now and then I go look at github to see what pull requests have been auto-closed there, since it seems most of the repos under https://github.com/openstack/(.*) auto-close pull requests (with messages telling people to use gerrit);

I'm wondering though if there is anyway to notify the maintainers in gerrit that this has happened?

For example anytime a PR is closed on say:

https://github.com/openstack/taskflow/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed

A email could be sent to all of:

https://review.openstack.org/#/admin/groups/173,members

Letting those members there know that a PR was closed, and so that those members can then try to avoid losing a contribution from a person that was just trying to do 'good' (by making a PR in the first place).

Is anything like that possible, it would very much help in *not* losing these types of contributions (and new members to our community) because currently I have a feeling that most people don't even know that such pull requests are getting closed automagically.

For example:

- https://github.com/openstack/oslo.messaging/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed (3 here)
- https://github.com/openstack/nova/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed (alot here)
- https://github.com/openstack/glance/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed (3 here)
- .... and so on
