No, of course not, but how does this example fit into this? If you had told me
that you don't want to merge until everything is complete I would have closed 
the
pull request and continued working. However, in this case we agreed to merge,
because

a.) it was as you said already quite solid
b.) the whole issue is not completed yet, so I can integrate your suggestions 
in a follow up
     pull request (mind you same issue!)
c.) there were this check style changes coming up and I rather had Davide 
changing my
     quite extensive change set in one go, instead of me going through some 
painful 
     rebase.

I find c.) in this case a particulate string point. It avoided a lot of 
unnecessary work

So we agreed that some improvement could be made. The change was a no brainer.
Even you have to admit this now. It literally changed two lines. 

The problem here was not the fact that we are to nitty gritty with reviews or 
don't
process pull request fast enough. It was a plain miscommunication issue. 

You did not understand what I wanted or how it could be achieved in a simple way
and I did not understand why you could not just make this minor adjustment and 
be
done with it.  Nothing wrong with the process.

No, not at all. Obviously you worked on the test, since you made a change and 
included it
into the pull request. Are you saying that this change ended up accidentally in 
the 
pull request?
