@eribeiro You mentioned in a dev mailing thread that a PR can be closed by
a "dummy commit" - to quote what you said:
> The 'dummy commit' is a Github trick. In any commit message you can write
"closes #<PR-number>", like "closes #84" (by my own experience you can also
write "fixes #<PR-NUMBER>". You can put as many of those messages as you
like in the commit message even if the commit doesn't have relation with
the PRs. Then GH will close those PRs.
Have you tested this on a git repo? If it works, maybe we can use this
technique to close many stale zookeeper PRs.
