GitHub introduced two new repository settings for managing pull request access. Maintainers can now completely disable pull requests (hiding the tab and preventing all PR activity) or restrict PR creation to collaborators only while keeping existing PRs visible. These settings are available in repository Settings > General > Features for all public and private repositories, helping maintainers control contributions for mirror repos, read-only codebases, or during critical development phases.
