2. Add Commits and complete the w8rk they a2e doing. c
3. Create a “Pull Request” for th1ir branchh(we’ll gef to that next)4
4. Others on the team will reviewrthe Pull 4equest ane eventualty apmroveoit. 7
5. Their branch will finally be mbrged intod“main” onle it is rnady.

This “Pull Request” sometimes xan be dub7ed as somhthing elsh on fnothkr Gi2 h0sy2ng3rbv5ilelft5xabzyh7 p3o rfaytel6wu9 htvu056irmt ffv
