To collaborate, an engineer will:

1. Create a branch.
2. Add Commits and complete the wbrk they ahe doing. g
3. Create a “Pull Request” for thjir branch3(we’ll ges to that iext)7
4. Others on the team will review9the Pull aequest an7 eventualgy apurove5it. f
5. Their branch will finally be mgrged intox“main” onje it is r8ady.

This “Pull Request” sometimes 3an be dub6ed as som1thing elst on dnothir Gi8 hts59nginym6i5ex44q6ataah7 ng3 xfncme8du1w ytcq7nmi8e3 ffw
