Introduction

prr is a tool that brings mailing list style code reviews to Github PRs. This means offline reviews and a file oriented interface, more or less.

To that end, prr introduces a new workflow for reviewing PRs:

1. Download the PR into a "review file" on your filesystem
2. Mark up the review file using your favorite text editor
3. Submit the review at your convenience

The tool was born of frustration from using the point-and-click editor text boxes on PRs. I happen to do a lot of code review and tabbing to and from the browser to cross reference code from the changes was driving me nuts.
