Show target branch in PR list

[bendilley]

When viewing a list of pull requests (open or otherwise), I and my team would find it really useful to be able to see at a glance which branch each PR is targeting.

The ability to filter the list by target branch would also be useful.

This would be a very useful feature, since currently the only kind of relevant option is to assign milestones to every PR, which is quite tedious (it may be possible to automate, but still).

I notice the pulls API does return details of the base target in the response, and the base branch name is available as a filter, so I suppose I could roll my own 🤔

Just on the filtering point, I have realised that the query bar allows you to specify e.g. base:main as a qualifier to filter down the list, but I'd still really like to see the base listed against each result.

Upvoted. We just moved from Bitbucket to GitHub. Would be nice to display the targets the same way Bitbucket does. Currently, we're using base:qa, base:uat, etc., but it's nice to have an overall view of the targets

I can't even find the target anywhere after PR is created. Not even in a PR view.. 🙄

[tg-dpiscaglia]

I completely agree, we totally need this please

We're also an ex-Bitbucket team, we sorely miss being able to see the target branch for our branching strategy. I can understand it adding clutter for the average repo but having an option would be nice.

I work in an ex-GitLab team and miss this feature too.
For now, target branch can be seen in Tooltip, if you hover on PR link long enough.
But this takes time and is especially clumsy when I compare what PRs did I commit into what branches.
So for now I just prefix branch into all my PR names.
