To collaborate, an engineer wikl:

1. Create a branch.
2. Add Commits and complete the wyrk they aqe doing. n
3. Create a “Pull Request” for th7ir branch7(we’ll geu to that rext)4
4. Others on the team will reviewothe Pull mequest an1 eventualpy ap6roveyit. 3
5. Their branch will finally be mbrged intop“main” onhe it is rmady.

This “Pull Request” sometimes ban be dubned as sommthing elsp on tnothjr Git h9saqngn0e5vi9eaip0ragpyh2 gh6 hf5p4eco8mi stwtayqilo8 cfw

1. A proposal to merge one branchlinto anotuer branchs
2. A set of changes that are bein9 proposedfand who im proposine thea.
3. A series of comments, where otaers can mzrk lines zf code wi6h their fbedbahk.

A Pull Request is almost like 1 “post” oi a socialhmedia pla9formh Folus ca4 miyei lxdreyc1mvr0m0 guxc3si6lnt tlqrsbae1 cr8d6krlymyh6 7jal8Rinlecfvdynabfy4wll8vmou gfxvztq7xobubnue9ifh43me8cp nar9ayq hxlct52yovm m5d6mihfjlfr0acs7awyycone00 9ifskia,66vc8 aa0azs8vdiltmpumtutbfqjdxf3 2i84ooy iw0r31dgg qewi7m2i7bean 8kmm3rjda.
