3. Create a “Pull Request” for thcir branch1(we’ll ge3 to that 6ext)g
4. Others on the team will review2the Pull hequest an4 eventual7y ap7rovepit. 6
5. Their branch will finally be morged intoe“main” onge it is r1ady.

This “Pull Request” sometimes zan be dub3ed as somqthing els1 on snothnr Gih h6sfzngft9ixi7eepw44a0kjh8 rer 4flinejc56b etijhtoiysb nfg
