33.32 Git Pull Request Change Branch

20210414

Often a pull request comes through that targets the main (or master) branch whilst it should really target a different branch to allow testing before it is merged into the main branch.

Github allows the destination of a pull request to be changed to a different, pre-existing, branch. From the Github GUI click the edit icon for the pull request, and select the target branch.
