If a PR touches lots of files I quite like to download the full branch to test a PR so everything is isolated (and sometimes patchtester times out for large numbers of http requests on servers). It would be nice to have a button for this rather than having to go to github look up the branch, go to the branch and hit download.

Why not? It'd give something that GitHub doesn't even offer, and
comparatively speaking, that's easier to do than half the other suggestions
on the table right now.

Neat idea, and a "low hanging fruit" :wink:
