When I was teaching, students would submit their homework/labs as pull requests, which leads to reviewing a couple hundred a week. My quickest tip is the tiny command line instructions link on GitHub saves a ton of time.
I would copy and paste the Step 1 changes into the CLI and then test the code on my computer. Then, I would normally do inline comments using the plus button that pops up when you hover over a line of code in the files changed tab with things I would change or things that were awesome!
Yeah I do that too. This morning (prompting this discussion), I had the feeling that maybe I want to do this via GitHub Desktop because it just seems like the more flowy way to do it. I don't like that app much for most of my workflow, but in terms of quickly going from web to review it could be better.
