I have a repo on github which someone else (Bob, for the sake of argument) has issued a pull request for. His code's not perfect, so we go through a few rounds of markups. As I understand it, he commits and pushes to his pull-request for each set of marked up changes.

So my repository now looks like this:

master: ---o A (Chowlett
           |
           |
pull-req:  o---o---o---o
               B   C   D (all Bob)

Commit SHAs and msgs are as follows:

A:

123456 Good commit <chowlett>

B:

777ccc Fix the widget bug <bob>

C:

888ddd Review markups <bob>

D:

999eee Further markups <bob>

I'm now happy to accept this pull request; but I'd rather the pre-markup versions weren't in my repo. Can I achieve all of the following; and how?

  • Merge B, C & D into my repo as a single commit
  • Generate the "Merge pull request #99 into ..." commit as well
  • Have github automatically close the pull request
git github pull-request
