Pull request default settings for "to" and "from" branch
As a user, I would like to be able to set a default to and from branch on pull requests (started from the fuzzy finder or Create pull request button).
For example, a default to branch of main and a default from branch of the currently checked out branch.

Without this setting, GitKraken should automatically pick up first protected branch on using remote. -

Kevin BostI would also prefer on repositories that support a "default" branch (such as Azure Dev Ops and GitHub) that the default branch be listed first (or automatically selected)

DannyThere should also be an autofill for the repositories.
I'm sure that at least in 90% of the cases when I'm on a given repository and open a PR - I want to open it on the exact same repository. -

Oleg MergedCurrently, when creating a PR need to manually select a target branch which is annoying especially when there are dozens similar ones.
Suggestion: use repo's default branch as default for PR -

WolfsblvtWithout this, the PR functionality is sadly not really useful for me.
I work on multiple repos that have the default branch as main/stable, and PRs should be going against a dev branch. Setting the branch manually in GitHub after is too easy to forget.
This should either:
- Be configurable per repository
- Be "remembered" from which Branch I created the feature branch from.
