So that’s a vote for Github then?

To answer Bcall’s email, yes, Github comments ends up on the Jira, but not the 
other way around. So people reading and commenting there see the entire thread, 
whereas people only reading the Github PR only sees “half” the thread.

To answer the Geffon’s email: I don’t know if / how that can be changed, to 
minimize email. Daniel: What can we do here to reduce emails / duplications?

We reject them, and ask them to follow our guidelines? :) There should be no 
commits from PRs without a Jira anyways, unless they are trivial, documentation 
etc. (the already acceptable list of commits that require no Jira).

Fwiw, I’m ok either way, but my preference would be to stick to comments / 
threads on the Jira. I just feel we need to agree of a workflow here, to avoid 
confusion and split discussions.
