Trigger a new PR from the builder in the Shiny App

[cpauvert]

A serious improvement from the builder of new entry (#9) would be to trigger a PR directly from the Shiny app. I am not sure if it is possible but worth a try!

Perhaps starting with this: https://github.com/actions/starter-workflows

Another option could be to set a template for an issue. The template would have much of the attributes needed for a new entry. Perhaps issues with template can be parsed by already developed Github Actions

Could look into https://github.com/marketplace/actions/issue-body-parser

Some people also tried to 'save' edits from a Shiny App to a Github repository (https://stackoverflow.com/q/65157977). Could be something to look at.
Otherwise I need to find a way to connect R/Shiny to a Github repo for the user to be able to fork, edit, commit and PR. So far I have seen git2r packages but that seems more local.
