Summary

GitHub has introduced a new feature that allows users to view and sort long-running Pull Requests directly from the repository's Pull Request page. This feature addresses the challenge of managing Pull Requests that remain open for extended periods without being completed or closed. By identifying Pull Requests that have been open for more than a month but have seen recent activity, this tool helps developers and project managers investigate and address any issues preventing their resolution. The filter sorts these long-running Pull Requests by their life span, which is the duration from their creation to the most recent activity, thus facilitating better project management and oversight.
