Is the history of the pull-requests preserved forever?
I could not find anywhere for how long the pull-requests history is being saved.

1Yes, they are.. (You can verify this empirically by picking any mature repo on GitHub and taking a look at the closed PR history.) – Oliver Charlesworth Nov 19 '17 at 12:45

The pull-requests history is indeed preserved by github forever as long as the repo is not deleted.

If I'm not wrong , but I might be , github was launched in March-April 2008 , so you could check a 9 years old repo to make sure. :) – Nacev Nov 19 '17 at 13:00

You merge your repo with the pull request you want and then you simply `git clone` – Nacev Nov 20 '17 at 09:11
