Hey Szabi, Thanks for the prompt response!
I've thought the repos are connected back and forth and the close PR is the official way. In case of we still stack to the patch file and git apply then commit and push approach. My only question in this case : Do we have any agreement on how we commit these PRs. I would vote for Squash and push, but of course I'm open for the discussion. BTW : Is "This closes" message deletes the branch automatically? On front of Github + Jira: I'm aware Github has the feature to connect with Jira so I'm pretty sure it doable. Also I'm not sure if any ASF project has done it ever, but I'll ask around in other communities.

However the commit process is still simplified, the ASF GitHub Bot JIRA comment contains the patch download link (e.g. https://github.com/apache/sqoop/pull/60.patch) and the commit message (e.g. This closes #60) you need to include to close the pull request. The rest of the process remains the same, you need to apply the patch manually and push the commit to git-wip-us repo. Regarding the GitHub UI improvement: I am not sure GitHub provides such a feature, do you know an example repository where this is implemented?
