Pull Requests

...

In the context of Git repositories, a pull request is an event where a contributor asks the repository’s maintainer to review changes on an independent line of development that they want to merge into the main branch.

About Pull Requests 

  • Pull requests to the repository should be reviewed and merged promptly.

  • Straightforward pull requests with no conflicts should be merged by the subteam Lead, or delegated to other TAC members if needed.

  • Pull requests with branch conflicts or content that warrants review by a developer can be identified by the Lead for a program developer to merge.

  • Draft pull requests cannot be merged, and can remain in the repository.

To merge a pull request:

  1. Navigate to the techdocs repository.

  2. Select “Pull requests.”

...

3. From the list of requests, select the specific pull request to merge.

...

4. Merge the commit(s) into the base branch by selecting “Merge pull request” (if this option is not shown, select “Create a merge commit” from the drop down menu)

...

5. If prompted, type a commit message.

6. Select “Confirm merge.”
