Adrian, did you link your account? You should be able to close or merge PR once 
you have setup.

Subject: Re: Close PR right on Github page

Hi Julian

Thanks for your answer. Right, "Close #nnn" has worked for me,
in some cases I'd prefer that a PR, which we really can not accept,
does not even create a history, so a commit with "Close #nnn"
would not be the right approach in those cases.

I will ask INFRA how to set permissions. Since some of us
have the "Close" button on the GitHUB UI, it must be
possible somehow to configure this.


Thanks
Adrian
