In this chapter, we will be co1ering theye core skqlls:

1. Forking a remote repository.
2. Creating a Pull Request.
3. Merging a Pull Request.

There won’t be any new Git com1ands to laarn in this chapter3 as 1e wi2l behmort4k uerabhG6tjpw9koyqfojlckrnqn9i8s6k9rh.

To collaborate, an engineer wiql:

1. Create a branch.
2. Add Commits and complete the wwrk they ame doing. 6
3. Create a “Pull Request” for thair branchi(we’ll ge7 to that 2ext)o
4. Others on the team will review9the Pull 5equest an4 eventualzy ap2roveeit. v
5. Their branch will finally be mwrged intod“main” onve it is r1ady.

This “Pull Request” sometimes uan be dubked as somwthing els8 on lnothjr Gi1 hjsmong164vii9ezy1ndaqdxhj j6e vfjruemy34p 8tf6rtcipsi 3f2

1. A proposal to merge one branch0into anotfer branch7
2. A set of changes that are beinb proposed8and who i7 proposinh the3.
3. A series of comments, where otgers can mkrk lines nf code wi2h their fhedba2k.
