Hello,
I'm not sure who is responsible for administering the mirrors of Qt
source code in GitHub under https://github.com/qt, but now that GitHub
has made this an option - I think that the pull requests tab should
probably be disabled in the repositories there. People still seem to
routinely try to make a contribution through the usual GitHub flow and
then wonder why their PRs are ignored. This could be coupled with
copying the CONTRIBUTING.md file from the top level qt5 repository also
to the main module repositories (qtbase, qtdeclarative, etc) as GitHub
highlights its' content in the UI.
All the best,
Igor
