This is a problem, indeed.  But it's not an argument for adding yet another

I've never understood the hype around github, tbh.  If you see value in
adding to your workload, feel free to - but really, evidence speaks against
enabling pull requests.

Also, Dazo and I won't actually *use* git-pull to fetch those, so one
of the big reasons why you would want that ("to enable git pull") wouldn't
apply anyway.  We have agreed on a workflow how to integrate patches, and
"pull" is not part of it.  "git am" and "git push" are...
