The correct response to any PR that is too large to digest is to reject it and ask the author to split it up.

No it is not. It depends on the codebase - if it is something relatively new, a proof of concept or something that is bound to change soon, there is no point in slowing the development down just because it is "too large to digest".

Then saying that you have looked through and reviewed the code would be lying. And that is unprofessional.

Is sitting down and understanding the code in the PR not an option?

[–] Endmaker@ani.social 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm not sure what you are getting at.
