Description

If a pull request is open from a forked repo, it will automatically be apply to the source it's forked.
The issue is that we can only see the branch from the source that we've forked and we are unable to easily change the target to apply the pull request.

The only "hack" we can do is change the username or the organisation targeted inside the URL to be able to get the correct usage.

By default I think we need to be able to do pull request inside the repo we work, even if it's a fork.

duplicated with #6225 ?

Hmm, I'm not certain if this is the same.

So when you click on PullRequest from a fork it is assumed that you want to merge into the original repository not the fork.

Now, there's no way of changing the base repository easily except to change the URL by hand.

The UI for compare needs to allow you to select the fork repository branches to merge in, and needs to allow you to suggest other repositories. Similarly we need to allow users to change repository for the pulled branch.

Exact and I think it's best if the "default" PullRequest suggested need to be the repository where the PullRequest is created.

Has this issue been resolved?

The compare diff page needs to be rewritten to allow for easy changes to the base repo and head repo
