      My team has been making heavy use of the pull request feature since it was introduced. One of the constant requests I hear from them is for the ability to use the Diff feature prior to saving the pull request.

      The purposes of reviewing the Diff before issuing the pull request:

      • the originator can verify that the proper changes are in the request
      • the originator can identify any conflicts in the request
      • reviewers do not receive 'notification spam' for a pull request that may be invalid/incomplete

      Our current workaround for this is:

      • create the pull request without assigning reviewers
      • review the diff on the newly created pull request
      • in case of conflicts, decline the pull request
      • otherwise, edit the pull request and add reviewers
