This makes the most sense, I guess, especially since only a few people

Am I doing it wrong?  I find pull requests to be more annoying than  
useful.  I can't trigger the pull from github, doing the pull doesn't  
make the pull request go away; how is a pull request on github any  
better than an email directly to the branch maintainer?
