### Creating new pull request from a fork
**Scenario:**
Creating a pull request from a fork/branch (head) and pulling into octokit.net/master (base)
When you are opening a PR against a repository within an organization, owner is the name of the organization
In this scenario as we are merging to octokit/octokit.net:master, owner=octokit

```csharp
public async Task CreatePullRequestFromFork()
{
GitHubClient ghClient = new GitHubClient(new ProductHeaderValue("MyLib", "v2.0.0"));
ghClient.Credentials = new Credentials("apiToken");

NewPullRequest newPr = new NewPullRequest("PrTitle", "forkName:branchName", "master");
var octokitRepo = await ghClient.Repository.Get("octokit", "ocktokit.net");

var pullRequest = await ghClient.PullRequest.Create("octokit", "octokit.net", newPr);
// Or
var alternatePr = await ghClient.PullRequest.Create(octokitRepo.Id, newPr);
}
```

**Scenario:** I have a lot of small pull requests to review, but things are a mess
- old pull requests which might be superseded by new ones, and it's hard to see from
the descriptions what the changes actually represent.
