Today, we’re rolling out a new feature that makes Pull Requests easier to create:

After pushing a branch to GitHub, you (and only you) will see that branch at the top of your repo’s page, along with buttons to create a Pull Request for it or compare it with master.
At GitHub, we’re constantly creating and using Pull Requests. They’re an indispensable tool in our internal workflow, and a key part of making open source project management with GitHub so great. We’re excited to make using them easier!
