Closing Stale Issues on Github

 

Github issues are closed via commit messages to the master branch.  Typically we pull in a PR and close the PR by amending the commit message with the "closes #xxx" line.

But sometimes we need to close a PR without pulling in the PR.  Instead, create an "Empty Commit" and document the reason for the commit in the commit message.
