Adding this line to the remote in .git/config will make PRs
visible locally:
fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*
Alternately, you can add a separate remote just for PRs:
[remote "pulls"]
url = g...@codeberg.org:org/reop.git
fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/pulls/pr/*
The latter setup can speed some workflows, since you can choose
to fetch PRs
or not.
These work for any Forgejo or Giteainstance, and I believe work
the same on
GitHub/GitLab also.
Is there a way to add this my the global gitconfig so that it
happens
automatically for all remotes from a specific forge?
I don’t believe so. There may be a way to add it for all cloned
repos, but I doubt it can be done automatically based on a remote
pattern.
Probably the best bet is to write a script which uses `git-config'
to set it up, and either run that after cloning, or create a
second `clone-pulls' which wraps `git-clone' and the script to
configure the PR remote.
