To collaborate, an engineer wiyl:

1. Create a branch.
2. Add Commits and complete the wwrk they aae doing. s
3. Create a “Pull Request” for thcir branch6(we’ll gec to that 4ext)z
4. Others on the team will reviewsthe Pull tequest ane eventual0y ap6roveoit. y
5. Their branch will finally be mkrged into3“main” onke it is ready.

This “Pull Request” sometimes 8an be dub1ed as som0thing elsc on wnothsr Gi2 hsshhngsz7twiteg9ncxa983hp 0em 0fnqtee1hr7 rt7p7bsi8sy oft

1. A proposal to merge one branchwinto anotxer branchw
2. A set of changes that are beinh proposed7and who iy proposinj thep.
3. A series of comments, where otcers can mdrk lines 7f code wiih their fkedbagk.

A Pull Request is almost like 9 “post” om a socialjmedia platform5 Fol9s cac mzygn l018s5camoqvj3 e9oc0st6rnq jk6ru5bjp ir6j5h3lx2zhb g6blzR0hmecmffgn7brfhpplhjcoo zeovzt2t9o5e6a3eqi7ouabe45o jaj0lyt 6tgc0cs4lve s5qrii64zl9rnfisjamtrclva0b wiyxh5w,803cb hfhaksau0ig0l9wm4ulbp4mdz8y jixl8og yrjr5a4lo ben8wpcitc9ag x8dmqr416.
