You know Github lets you push to other people's branches when they are PRs on your project right? You didn't have to shuffle to another PR to accomplish this. Unless PR authors uncheck the box, project maintainers automatically get push access to features branches that are open PRs on their projects.
@alerque wow! I would have never thought that I would be able to push to your repository. That is almost scary to me... but useful in this scenario. I'll keep that in mind for the future.
There has been a checkbox when you open PRs for years now with "allow maintainers to push to this branch". You can't push just anywhere in other's repos, but if they open a PR from a branch on their fork to your project, you can usually push to that branch. I don't know how long it's been on by default, but quite a while I think. It's quite useful to be able to patch up or extend people's contributions before merging.
