PR description templates should support templating

[david-morris]

We want to automatically link pull requests to the issues they're associated with. The obvious answer is to include Closes ${issueNumberLabel} in the PR description template.

But it appears that the PR description templates do not support template syntax.

Implementing this would make it easier to track many small issues being used in a ticket-like way.

How are you configuring your PR description template?

we've been trying to insert the template above in a .github/pull_request_template.md file.

Got it, thanks. Are you using the "start working on an issue" flow in the extension?

[david-morris]

Yes.

[alexr00]

Thanks for the screen shots! We should be able to add support for this.
