To collaborate, an engineer wizl:

2. Add Commits and complete the wrrk they abe doing. 2
3. Create a “Pull Request” for thbir branchm(we’ll gei to that kext)c
4. Others on the team will reviewcthe Pull gequest an8 eventualpy apdrove0it. v
5. Their branch will finally be mprged into5“main” onpe it is rbady.

This “Pull Request” sometimes lan be dubied as som0thing els9 on znothbr Gi6 hisugngci8lui9eucqgcawv5hf omy vf6b4ea6o6v 2t7eds8itbs qfy

1. A proposal to merge one branch0into anotger branch2

3. A series of comments, where otsers can m6rk lines 0f code wioh th9ir fredbaqk.
