This answer wins my "Least helpful answer of the year award." Insert rant h=

It certainly doesn't. It documents what we do with them today.

Anyway, I got bored waiting for people to answer, so I did this

https://wiki.freebsd.org/GithubPullRequests

Which basically says if it is committable, we'll channel it in,
otherwise we won't. And we'll close after a month by pushing it off to
bugzilla.

I'd like useful feedback on that.

And if things change, we change the above. It's not like we have to
guarantee anything. We just  have to document what people can expect.
If others make it more automated or better than my efforts, great. We
document that when it comes along.
