Hello,
I have a question about the automatic closure of PRs. Tim Sutton
answered me aleady on this topic a while ago, saying that I
*"will be relying on the good will of a developer who may or may not
have time to review your PR when I cannot pay a reviewer to review my
PR's"*,
and that
*"I may need to be gently persistent and patient, along with a little
social engineering to get my PR reviewed and merged."*
I understand that, but I wonder what the arguments are for having a bot
close PRs automatically at all on an open source project where
reviewer's time is a scarce ressource?
Is this to incentivize people to make "perfect PRs"?
I would like to argue that it would be better to only close a PR
manually, because something about it's content is not good. With
automatic closing, I will have to ask for reopening, creating
unnecessary work for
the person doing it and cluttering the email list. I do not understand
why there needs to be this time pressure to review. Why does it
necessarily need to happen within a short period of time?
Could I open an issue about this?
mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Moritz Hackenberg
