Normally the GitHub email gives you the proper command to use to pull the PR into your local git which you can merge and push (which merges the PR once GitHub gets updated from apache.org).
As for making sure that email gets sent, if it's not, file an INFRA ticket about it. I've never tried it, but this might work: git pull https://github.com/apache/commons-math/pull/55 If you add .diff or .patch to the end of the URL, it gives you a diff that you can manually apply. The .diff URL appears to be a normal diff while the .patch URL is the output of "git format-patch". So, if you download < https://github.com/apache/commons-math/pull/55.patch> and run "git apply 55.patch", that'll commit it properly as if you merged the PR itself I think (it'll set the commit author properly at least for proper historical attribution). Also, adding a commit message somewhere (e.g., a follow up empty commit or a changelog entry commit) containing the phrase "this closes #55" (or maybe just "closes #55"; it's pretty loose) is enough to close the PR, but merging it should close it automatically.
