prs

Requires a GitHub API token to use, provided through the --token flag or from the GITHUB_TOKEN/GH_TOKEN environment variables. With roughly 6,000 open pull requests on NixOS/nixpkgs, ~60 API requests are made per run to fetch 100 pull requests at a time.. GitHub's documentation on GraphQL ratelimiting isn't very clear so I can't say for certain how many runs it will take for the rate limit to be reached, but for good measure don't run it more then 5-ish times an hour.

--repository

The (GitHub) repository from which pull requests are fetched. Defaults to NixOS/nixpkgs.

--updates

Shown pull requests that are detected to be package updates (filters for pull requests that include a -> in the title, as is the preferred commit/pull request title style in NixOS/nixpkgs).

--new

Shown pull requests that have not already been shown (filters for pull requests created after the timestamp of the last nixpkgs-using invocation).
