On cordova coho there is a section "Stale Pull Requests"
To close a pull request that is no longer relevant / active:
- Create an empty commit in the repo of the pull request via:
- `git commit --allow-empty -m "Closing stale pull request: close #99"
So I think it can be done without editing the README.md (never tried)
I sometimes ask the PR owner to close it if it's not going to be merged,
but if he doesn't close it in a few days we can do this.
