After pushing a branch and creating a PR, GitHub desktop still thinks, I can create a pull request.

Describe the bug

After pushing a branch and creating a PR, GitHub desktop still thinks, I can create a pull request and doesn’t display the current PR state.

Version & OS

Version 2.3.1 macOS 10.15.3

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Create a branch from master
2. Commit a change
3. publish the branch
4. create a pull request

Expected behavior

After the creation of the pull request, GitHub desktop should track the PR state. And it should say something “No local changes, push further commits to the PR.”

Actual behavior

GitHub desktop remains in the state, that the branch has been pushed, but no PR has been created. It doesn’t track the PR.

Logs

That’s a clip of the log:

[lini]

I am still experiencing this issue - macOS 10.15.7, Github Desktop 2.5.6, working with a private Github repository. The PR tab in the branches dropdown does not update with the currently open PRs in the repository. I have to manually find the branch of the PR in the branches tab and switch to it.
