Open pull requests for crossposted blog changes — open_crosspost

Takes the copied post folders produced by [crosspost_blog()] and, for each one, creates a branch, commits the copy, pushes it, and opens a pull request on GitHub. `gert` handles the git side (branch/add/commit/push); `gh` makes the API call that actually opens the PR.

Usage

open_crosspost_prs(targets, branch, base = "main", remote = "origin")

Arguments

targets: Character vector of paths to the copied post folders, one per destination repo – this is the (invisible) return value of [crosspost_blog()]. Each path must live inside a git repo.
branch: Name of the branch to create in each repo, e.g. "crosspost-2026-09-09-openscapes_esip_summer_2026".
base: Base branch to open the PR against. Default "main".
remote: Name of the git remote to push to. Default "origin".

Value

Invisibly, a character vector of the created PR URLs.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
targets <- crosspost_blog(
  post = "website-new/blog/2026-09-09-openscapes_esip_summer_2026",
  root = "~/Documents/repos/github/openscapes/crossposting",
  destinations = c(
    nasa = "NASA-Openscapes.github.io/news",
    nmfs = "nmfs-openscapes.github.io/blog"
  )
)

open_crosspost_prs(targets, branch = "crosspost-esip-summer-2026")
