We often have a scenario during the PR code review process where someone does the review, but only has questions for the submitter. No changes are being requested. Only questions and they are finished with their review. They then mark the PR as Needs Work while waiting on answers to their questions, so that the PR drops to the bottom section of the PR summary list. If the submitter then responds to those questions without any new commits, the PR stays in Needs Work state and remains at the bottom of the PR summary list, and the reviewer isn't able to easily see that it's back in their court. Our project is large and we have a lot of users, so it's nearly impossible to monitor this effectively through email notifications. Is there any way to mark a PR as "needs info", where the submitter could then mark it as "info provided" after they have answered the questions, and then the reviewers would know it's ready for them again?
You could implement this workflow using Flowie labels set(a Bitbucket addon we provide). You could, for instance, create a label "Status: Ready to review" and "Status: Info required" to reflect the status of the PRs.
