You can use Gitcli for this. This can be executed through Jenkins using a shell executor.

if you could explain the requirement in more detail, it would be more helpful.

One way I could think of raising a PR on GitHub using Jenkins is by using GitHub's API.

• GitHub has an API to work with pull requests. I believe you would specifically need the "Create a pull request" API.
• Jenkins has a plugin - "HTTP Request" to make HTTP requests.
• In your Jenkins pipeline, create a job that makes a POST request to the /repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls endpoint. You can declare the status as success/failure based on the response status code.
