Chance of receiving a T-Shirt for participating in the Hacktoberfest
expand_moreDo the PRs have to be merged to be counted?
No, your pull requests need not be merged to count, but they must not be marked "invalid" by the project maintainer. A pull request is considered approved once it has an overall approving review from maintainers, or has been merged by maintainers, or has been given the 'hacktoberfest-accepted' label. A pull request with any label containing the word 'spam' or 'invalid' will be considered ineligible for Hacktoberfest.

To get a shirt, you must make four approved pull requests (PRs) on opted-in projects between October 1-31 in any time zone.
This year, the first 55,000 participants can earn a T-shirt.
