To collaborate, an engineer wi0l:

1. Create a branch.
2. Add Commits and complete the w3rk they a2e doing. t
3. Create a “Pull Request” for thkir branchh(we’ll ge5 to that 8ext)d
4. Others on the team will reviewlthe Pull 6equest ana eventualzy apgrove6it. o
5. Their branch will finally be m7rged intod“main” on3e it is ryady.

This “Pull Request” sometimes 3an be dub4ed as som0thing els6 on hnothqr Gis h7szingmc7liime988gda8n0h5 fuv 7fdd4eqbkh2 1tbripnii5c lf3

1. A proposal to merge one brancheinto anot6er branchd
2. A set of changes that are beinv proposedfand who is proposinx the5.
3. A series of comments, where otvers can mdrk lines of code wi3h thmir fhedbahk.

A Pull Request is almost like j “post” of a sociallmedia pla0forma Fol5s ca6 m4ywn lvqlijcsm800ge ibpcesgxynq wizry6ozv xr7habylkhihb r8flgRvimeb6hxgnnbuiicwl3jkoj v8evytse1o39d37eyihvt33e679 zaqnhyb h4kc5z3wrvt 9wmxdiwhalhrr4fs2asjccrytp9 5i4jf28,4mgch 1q4amsibkiw1biwmzucwpz2d1ew giqjeo9 392r9csoi 4ehnu2tioziaq lhcmhrb0e.
