I created a pull request on project on GitHub to a specific remote branch. After some time, the remote branch was deleted.
How can I change the pull request to point to another branch (specifically master)?

Base Branch: The "Base Branch" is the branch where your new changes should be applied / integrated into. Head Branch: The "Head Branch" is the branch that contains the changes you want to integrate. Title: A short title that describes what this Pull Request is about.
AFAIK, you cannot change the source branch after creating a Pull Request. You have to create a new one instead. For future reference, the established best practice is to create a new branch before making any commits. You should not commit directly to master, especially when contributing to team projects.
To edit a pull request, select the pull request on the Pull requests page, go to its detail page and click "Edit". The target branch (the base branch) and the pull request branch (the branch that will be merged) cannot be changed.
You can now change the base branch of an open pull request. After you’ve created a pull request, you can modify the base branch so that the changes in the pull request are compared against a different branch. By changing the base branch of your original pull request rather than opening a new one with the correct base branch, you’ll be able to keep valuable work and discussion.
Click the Edit button by the title of the pull request to reveal the base branch selector.
You can't. Just make a new pull request.
