I suspect that closing a PR from the Github UI may be possible now we have 
gitbox, if permissions are set correctly. But I don’t know how to set 
permissions. You could try asking INFRA in hipchat.

The method I use isn’t pretty but it has worked for a long time. Add a comment 
‘Close #nnn’ or ‘Closes #nnn’ or ‘Close apache/incubator-crail#nnn’ on its own 
line in a commit message. When the commit is merged into master the bot will 
close the PR.
