For now, to avoid a situation where we would get stormed by a single user (and help with the cleanup afterwards), the limit I had set when the setting came out is 20 (to not bother existing collaborators too much). We can choose a number between 1 and 1000.

</div>
<div>We can also add users to a bypass list. I didn’t do anything on that, unless I had gotten feedback about the friction. That way we are still “protected” by an account being hijacked, even if was one of the closer collaborators.</div>

<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I just found out that GitHub now has a setting that allows us to limit the number of open PRs a user can have in a repository.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>https://github.blog/changelog/2026-06-17-limit-open-pull-requests-for-users-without-write-access/?utm_source=chatgpt.com</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We can set a maximum number of open PRs per user, and there should also be an option to create a bypass list for trusted contributors.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We talked about the increasing number of PRs with Anna and Vashek some time ago, so maybe we should consider trying this for GRASS.</p>
<p>It might also potentially improve the quality of contributions if someone can only have, say, two or three PRs open at a time, they might be more likely to think about what really belongs in GRASS and what might be unnecessary.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Best,<br>
Linda</p>
