In April 2025, GitHub updated its Command Line Interface (CLI) to improve support for triangular workflows commonly used by open-source contributors working with forked repositories. This update addresses prior limitations in managing pull requests within triangular workflows, allowing the CLI to adhere more closely to Git's push and pull configurations. As a result, contributors can now manage pull requests between their forks and the upstream repository more seamlessly. The update has been positively received by the developer community, indicating its significance in reducing workflow challenges for teams using forks.
Streamline your fork-based contributions with the latest GitHub CLI update! There's now more support for triangular workflows, which means managing pull requests between your fork and the original repo is now significantly smoother and more efficient.
It's great to see the GitHub CLI finally supporting triangular workflows! This solves a long-standing pain point for teams with forks and complex branch strategies.
