@quintessential5 you don't have to close the pull request. Just work on that branch and commit again until all the code is as it should be. A PR does not have to include 100% working code. You can also open it as a draft.

@SebastianSchuetze thanks for taking the time to communicate that. I was planning on re-opening the PR as soon as I committed fixes to the breaking unit tests. (I was also embarrassed to have even made a commit with broken tests; I thought I had verified that the tests were successful.)

[quintessential5]

Testing to see if re-opening the PR allows the latest commit to automatically show up and for the automated validation to be re-run...

[quintessential5]

Reverting a couple commits, in order to put them into a different PR, since I'm trying to make this the "task group support" PR.

Not sure what is going on. Will keep looking.

I wonder if it's due to the fact that it's a UCSB repo; I wonder if there are some parent organizational settings that aren't allowing it to work.

On the other hand, it seems we had the same problem with the last pull request of mine, even when I used my personal repo?

[DarqueWarrior]

I am going to merge to a local branch and push from there to my repo. I don't want to loose time trying to figure this out.

I was able to add you as a collaborator to the repo, so maybe it'll work now (it was done around 9:15 or 9:30 Pacific). However, of course, whatever's easiest for you.
