No need to toggle between windows, you can now manage pull requests without leaving Visual Studio. The GitHub Extension for Visual Studio includes a new pull request window that lets you review code, make changes, and push those changes back to GitHub. This release also provides support for upstream repository contributors to collaborate on a forked branch.

You can install the extension directly from the Visual Studio gallery or download it from visualstudio.github.com.
Last year we introduced the GitHub Extension for Visual Studio as an open source project under the MIT license. We welcome you to log issues and contribute in the extension repository.
