    Description

      If I find a typo or something during code review, with GitHub Enterprise's review interface, it was often easier to click the Edit icon and make the fix myself than it was to write a comment about it and wait for the author to fix it (assuming they even fixed it).

      In Bitbucket Server, there is no Edit button on the PR screen at all.

      In hunting for why it's missing, I found that inline editing is supposedly supported. So I clicked on "full source" from the review to see whether it's buried in there, and that screen did have an "Edit" button, but it's disabled, with the reason "Files can only be edited at the latest revision of a branch." There's no later revisions of this file, so I can only assume that it's something about it being in a PR which means I'm not allowed to just edit it.

      Being able to edit files directly from the PR would speed up code review quite a bit.
