Describe the bug
I'm using the renovate CLI to scan dependencies and open PR's while using the Azure DevOps service.
This pipeline works great and creates all my PR's with changes.
Abandoned (Closed) PR
I have a "stalebot" style tool cleaning up PR's that have been sitting idle.
I went to reactivate one but found that this won't work in Azure DevOps as the branch is removed as part of cleanup. Because of this I need to follow the directions it said below:
This is problematic in Azure DevOps because once a PR is merged or abandoned (their term for closed without merge) there is no ability to rename the PR, and you can't reopen if the branch no longer exists.
Issue
This makes the current reopen option unviable.
I'd request a method so I can reopen an abandoned PR and for Azure DevOps ensure the closing message properly describes how to "UN-Ignore" the prior abandoned PR.
