Symptoms
Creating a pull request in Azure DevOps fails, especially for bulk fixes where many issues are combined into a single PR.
The failure is on the Azure DevOps side (the PR is rejected rather than created).
Likely cause
Azure DevOps enforces a maximum length of 4000 characters on a pull request description. A bulk PR that aggregates many fixes can produce a description that exceeds this limit, and Azure DevOps rejects it.
Resolution
Create smaller pull requests — fewer fixes per PR, or individual PRs per issue — so each PR description stays within Azure DevOps's 4000-character limit.
Retry PR creation.
