I occasionally want to close an experimental PR without losing the context and changes associated with it. Is there a better way than dumping a patch into comments as seen below? I don't want lingering topic branches.

Is there any standard in place for marking content with its level of AI contribution? Basically, a *standard* way to mark your content as fully human generated all the way up to fully AI generated. Doesn't seem like there's a good standard.

I'm about ready to give up on GitHub Milestones altogether. * No linkage with releases or tags whatsoever * No way to mark multiple milestones * Crappy management UI What am I missing?

I think its time for dependabot-like automated dependency updates to get moved into a separate tab on GH. A few projects I audit for changes are now 90%+ dependabot noise, which adds no value auditing substantive pull requests. Perhaps a one-click label filter for such PRs?
