====To PR or not to PR====
Note from Nick Hall - 27 Feb 2024
Generally pull requests are preferred, but there are a few exceptions:
* Translations. Before Weblate, a translation maintainer was allowed to commit translation updates directly without a PR. This is still the case for addons. The reason behind this was that it was unlikely that the PR would be reviewed.
* Package maintenance. We allow package maintainers to make changes in the directory related to the package that they maintain.
* Releases. PRs are not required for commits relating to a release.
* Branch merges. I don’t make a PR when merging bug fixes from a maintenance branch into the master branch.
