Hey Victor,
For external contributors (no direct commit access), probably is
more convenient due to the option to review and make comments inline
the patch.
Otherwise, it can be from case to case, more or less the preference
of the developer. If it something that needs a larger review,
probably the pull request web interface on github offers more tools
and ensures that the discussion is not lost on mailing list.
Practically is like alternative to what we used to open a bug
tracker item for a patch.
It seems it allows to do pull requests even from branches of
kamailio project, as I can see you did the pull request already. I
expected that it required to fork the repository on personal github
account, do changes and then make the pull request. That would have
been heavy in my opinion for devs with commit access.
Given the above, I would consider pull requests as 'preferred'
instead of opening tracker issues with patches. But again, not
enforced (or at least not now, until majority considers is the best
to do).
Cheers,
Daniel
