Issue Summary
When viewing the pull request list on a smaller screen (or a narrowed browser window), pull requests with long titles don't show the destination branch. Only the status, title, author, and relative time are visible. The “source → destination branch” pill that normally appears next to the title is not shown for long-titled PRs, while it is visible for PRs with short titles.
This makes it difficult to quickly see which branch a PR is targeting when scanning the list, especially in repositories with multiple active branches.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open a repository with at least two open pull requests:
- PR A: short title (e.g., “Very short title”)
- PR B: long title (e.g., “A very long title pull request to showcase the issue that is happening”)
- Go to the Pull requests page (Summary/List view).
- Reduce the browser window width to a smaller size (e.g., half-screen or a typical laptop small resolution).
- Compare the display of PR A and PR B.
Expected Results
Both PRs show their branch chip in the list, including the destination branch (e.g., Short → main), possibly with:
- Truncation of the title before hiding the branch, or
- Responsive wrapping/layout that ensures the destination branch remains visible.
Actual Results
- Short-title PR (PR A) shows the branch chip including the destination branch (e.g., Short → main).
- Long-title PR (PR B) does not show the branch chip at all; the destination branch is completely hidden in the list view when the viewport is small.
- The only way to see the destination branch is to open the PR details page.
Workaround
Open the pull request directly or use the filter
