I'm using a behind-firewall install of Gitorious.
I can go into the web application and create a pull request from a clone and target the master repo from which it was cloned.
I'd like to be able to do this on the command line. More specifically, I'd like to be able to open merge requests from the command line from one branch to another (rather than from clone to seed repo).
Since I'm not using Github, I can't use Github specific tools or libraries. Is this possible?
There is no such thing as “merge request” in git itself. So, if this would be possible, it would require something specific to your git host.
