How to disable pull requests in GitHub?

问题:

I am trying to understand how will I be able to disable "pull requests" in github.

Question 1: We are trying to use the rebase workflow and that means using pull requests can be harmful if that isn't a fast forward push. One Solution: Setup branch permissions for the branches where I want to disable pull request. Or add me as the reviewer to anything that goes into master.

Question 2: So that begs the question, can I setup branch permissions in github ?? Can I add myself as a reviewer for any change that wants to get into master ?

Question 3: Github has definitely removed pre-receive hooks, so how can I do any enforcements before the source hits the server ? pre-commit hooks can be done, but at the same time can be pain.

I had asked a similar question here: Commit message hook on github

It seems github could be useful for the merge workflow or even git-flow, but it can be hard to maintain for the rebase workflow, is that a fair assumption ?

Can I consider atlassian Stash as a better tool for the rebase workflow ?

So far (Q3 2019): not possible.

Armin Sebastian suggests in GitHub issue 1191

I've made a new app that immediately closes and locks new and existing issues or pull requests and also supports posting a comment and labeling.
It is perfect for forks and mirrors, and you can configure it to your liking

dessant/repo-lockdown, with a .github/lockdown.yml including

# Lock issues and pull requests
lock: true

# Limit to only `issues` or `pulls`
# only: pull

Other workaround:

Note that (considering the OP dates from January 2015):

• since Sept 2015, you can protect branches in a GitHub repo.
  
  That means a protected branch:

• Can't be force pushed

• Can't be deleted
• Can't have changes merged into it until required status checks pass
• Can't have changes merged into it until required reviews are approved
• Can't be edited or have files uploaded to it from the web

And Since October 2016, you can dismiss a review

However, this requirement can sometimes block your team’s progress without good reason.
If someone leaves a review that requests changes and then goes on vacation or runs into computer problems, your pull request could be blocked for days, even after you’ve addressed the reviewer’s concerns.

This will unblock your pull request, freeing you up to merge it!

It is not possible according to GitHub support

I asked support [e-mail] on February 2018 if it was possible to remove the Pull Requests tab, and the reply from @nickcannariato was:

Thanks for writing in! We've definitely heard some users requesting this feature over the last couple of years, and it's currently on our feature request list. I can't make any promises about if or when we may add this ability in the future, but I'll add your +1 to that feature request so the team can see it.

confirming that it is not possible.

I made a tool to automatically close pull requests as they are opened.

You can't setup branch permissions with Github. However, if you're the only one with push permissions, you don't have to forbid the creation of pull requests: you could just rebase and push them manually.

A tool which my fit your needs is Gerrit. It's an open source software which act like a kind of wrapper around Git. It's mostly a code review software. But it will also allow you to define permissions per branches.

However, a difference with Github, is that you'll likely have to host it yourself.
