`Hi @${author}, thanks for opening a pull request! :tada:`,

`It looks like this PR was opened from the \`${defaultBranch}\` branch of your fork (\`${headRepo}\`), which is the same name as this repository's default branch. Working directly on \`${defaultBranch}\` in your fork causes a few problems:`,
``,
`- Your fork's \`${defaultBranch}\` branch will permanently diverge from \`esphome/esphome:${defaultBranch}\`, making it hard to keep your fork up to date.`,
`- Any additional commits you push to \`${defaultBranch}\` will be added to this PR, so you can't easily work on multiple changes at once.`,
`- Pushing maintainer fixes to your branch is awkward, since it means committing directly to your fork's default branch.`,
`- It makes local collaboration painful — \`${defaultBranch}\` in a checkout becomes ambiguous between upstream and your fork, and maintainers end up with naming collisions when fetching your branch.`,
``,
`Please re-open this as a new PR from a dedicated feature branch. The usual flow looks like:`,
``,
`\`\`\`bash`,
`# Make sure your fork's ${defaultBranch} is up to date with upstream`,
`git remote add upstream https://github.com/${owner}/${repo}.git # if you haven't already`,
`git fetch upstream`,
`git checkout ${defaultBranch}`,
`git reset --hard upstream/${defaultBranch}`,
`git push --force-with-lease origin ${defaultBranch}`,
``,
`# Create a new branch for your change and cherry-pick / re-apply your commits there`,
`git checkout -b my-feature-branch upstream/${defaultBranch}`,
`# ...re-apply your changes, then:`,
`git push origin my-feature-branch`,
`\`\`\``,
``,
`Then open a new pull request from \`my-feature-branch\` into \`${owner}/${repo}:${defaultBranch}\`.`,
``,
`Closing this PR for now — sorry for the friction, and thanks again for contributing! :heart:`,
