That "makes it to master" caveat might be problematic here since you're
using the gitflow approach (and things only hit master after a release). FYI

To close a github pr, you have to have a commit that makes it to master
with something like "closes #45", where "#45" is the PR number. (Or I think
if you merge the exact commit hash from the head of the PR branch that'll
work).

You can close PRs that are spurious by pushing an empty commit to master
with similar language. I usually try to include a reasoning.

Puja are you still using the "Commit Process for Committers" instructions
at [1]? Can you take a look at these instructions and figure out why they
are not closing the pull requests?
It would be worth it to see how spark is pulling stuff in. Their PRs look
nice: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14695

Go ahead and pull in changes. That branch is in a bad state and will be
deleted. Caleb and I will resume the release today.

Hey Aaron and Caleb,
I saw that there was a release branch. Should we hold off on merging
things into develop while you are working on the release? I had put off
merging pull requests while you guys were actively working so that it
wouldn't be adding work, but there are a lot of requests at this point
that
should be pulled in. Let me know if its ok to start pulling stuff in or
if
that will just add more work to what you all are currently doing.
Thanks,
Puja
