unable to create PR on github
The green "create pull request" button is greyed out. I've tried reselecting the repos and branches, logging out and in, navigating to that screen via my own repository -- nothing is working. Any ideas? Thanks. -- ~Ethan~

I tried creating a PR from a branch on my fork to master on python/cpython. The first time I tried it, after pressing the create PR button, the button dimmed and just sat there. Then, I tried to create a PR again and this time it seemed to work OK. No problems reported on https://www.githubstatus.com Try again? -- Ned Deily nad@python.org -- []
Is this still problem? Which fork/branch did you did you want to create to the PR with? On Mon, Sep 21, 2020, 6:14 PM Ethan Furman <ethan@stoneleaf.us> wrote:

I have more data: I pushed another branch and opened the link to create a PR: the button was green I changed the title: the button stayed green I removed the body comment (the template instructions) the button stayed green I clicked back into the title the button grayed out I hit <ctrl-z> to restore the body the button went green I removed the body the button stayed green I switched screens to type the last sentence, then went back the button grayed out (ARGH!) I restored the body (again with <ctrl-z>), removed the body, clicked on the button while it was still green it went grey and nothing happened I restored the body and hit the button the PR was created, and the body was gone Hopefully that helps somebody. -- ~Ethan~
And even more data: I added a body to the PR I was originally having trouble with: button stayed gray I went away for a while, say 5 - 10 minutes, and when I went back to that screen the button was green. I created the PR. -- ~Ethan~

I went away for a while, say 5 - 10 minutes, and when I went back to that screen the button was green. I created the PR.
Recently, I had to add a body text to create a PR (on another repo), otherwise the button would be grayed out. So that seems to be the reason. Regards Antoine.

I've had the same with the title... github has some heuristic about when a PR is ready to proceed with, which includes certain fields plus maybe requirements a project may have imposed, and in what's probably a gigabyte of hairy javascript, it appears to be confusable. The commandline client (gh pr create ) might avoid some of that mess?
