Hi!
I don't use Emacs myself, but I learned last weekend at FOSDEM that some Emacs users love using the Emacs extension Magit [1] with the Forge [2] feature to list and review GitHub Pull Requests directly from Emacs without opening a browser.
Just curious to know if any Emacs users here (Monty?) have tried Magit for interacting with https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pulls?
I have been using magit for git operations, and I tried out forge recently. It was more complex to install than most emacs packages, with a dozen or so dependencies. But once installed it works pretty well. I was able to create a PR within emacs with it and assign someone as the reviewer, but I was not able to see review comments to the PR - perhaps I was missing some features, or it would require another package. For example, to list all open PR with the "External Contribution" label (see attached screenshot with such a list and one commit from a PR opened in a separate window), one could do: 1. N f f to fetch all PRs 2. N m f to filter by states and labels.
