![]() ![]() The decision to accept or reject your pull request is, ultimately, that of the owner of the upstream repository. You will now see in the GitHub web interface that this commit has been added to your pull request, and it can be automatically merge, and the green tick is restored. Install a gas pipeĬommit and push your change to your fork ( git commit -a and git push). Edit the file and resolve the conflict by retaining the circuit breaker (it will likely still be needed even if we are using gas), e.g. You should see that a conflict in planning/stage1.MD is reported. On the command line pull in the changes from upstream via git pull upstream main. You could resolve this conflict in the GitHub web interface, but I prefer to continue to use the command line. You can see this because the green tick in your pull request has now changed automatically to a box warning you about the conflict This change means that the pull request cannot now be automatically merged. For example, I will now add a conflicting change to upstream, e.g. It will be automatically updated by those changes. Note that we can both continue to push changes to our repositories while the pull request is active. This way we can talk about the pull request. When I send this message, it pops up in your “conversation” view, and you are notified (if notifications are on). I can use this to send messages back to you, e.g. If I click on this, I can now see a similar “conversation” view. I, as the owner of upstream, can now see this pull request in my list of pull request. Your screen will now change to a “conversation” view, in which you can now engage in conversation if needed. ![]() This will now actually create the pull request and will send your message to the owner of the upstream repository. Once you have written your message you can click the Create pull request button. They can help you ensure that your message is polite and respectful, thereby making it more likely that the owner of the upstream repository will read it and won’t be offended. Note that there are links to the GitHub community guidelines, which you should read. This message is your way of communicating with the owner of the upstream repository and (politely) making your case for your changes. This provides space for you to give a subject title for the pull request, and to add a message saying why you are submitting the pull request. This will open another dialog page that will look something like this Given there are no conflicts, you can now click Create pull request. If there are conflicts, then you should resolve them as you did in the last page. Again, it is considered good manners to only raise pull requests that have a green tick (and thus no conflicts). This means that there are no conflicts, and you could create the pull request. The best way to remember this is to read this dialog is “I am requesting that the repository on the left pulls in changes made in the repository on the right”. This should be the original upstream repository, i.e. The repository on the left is the one which you are requesting should perform the pull. This should be your forked repository (so chrys-at-home/super_project for this example). The repository on the right it the repository from which you are requesting the pull. This will open up a dialog which will look something like this To start, you should click on the Pull Request icon You issue a pull request from the GitHub web interface. You can make a pull request on any repository you like, even if you don’t have permission to push to that repository. This “request to pull” is known as a “pull request”. The alternative to forcing a push of your changes into someone else’s repository is to instead ask them if they would like to pull your changes themselves. Don’t force a push - instead request a pull
