Git is widely recognized as an effective and popular adequate version control system that helps us make software programs more feasible. Most of the tasks have their files in their Git repositories; moreover, many platforms like Git provide extensive services to their developers by providing accessible code sharing, which is very beneficial and valuable.

Git provides open source projects that expose their repositories publicly and get help from the additions developed by a large community of developers that handles, 拉取请求which attracts developers to let the project get the changes we make to their code repositories. This feature of Git allows its users to interact with each other in a better way.

This article will teach us to create a Git repository with the help of the command line 拉取请求so that we can add our contributions to open source software projects.

Creating a pull request in Git from the command line

Pull RequestFeatures belong to the Git family, but rely primarily on Git's request-pullfeatures. Git supports 拉取请求, allowing us to request pulls from one work area to another through various repositories or branches.

This command checks out the changes and commits we will make in the feature branch.

We can say 拉取请求that it is a procedure by which developers notify their colleagues that their feature is finished, and once their feature is ready, the developer registers a branch 拉取请求so that every member is notified that it is time to review the code and eventually merge it officially into masterthe branch.

git request-pull [-p] <start> <url> [<end>]

The parameter description is as follows.

1. [-p]- Run the pull request; a pull without this alias will give us an output that encapsulates the changed files.

2. <start>- represents the initial point we want to merge into. Most of the time, we'll give it to masterthe branch and it will figure out the initial commit on its own.

   The initial commit belongs to the common ancestor of the feature branch breaks.

3. <url>- Indicates the repository to compare. Can be local or remote.

4. <end>- indicates the endpoint where we want to terminate the comparison. The final commit is usually not mentioned, since we want to merge the entire most recent commit.

Before we merge our feature branch into master, we should make sure we are on the feature branch, as this is the pull request process that the feature branch will issue so that it can be merged into master.

We can enter the feature branch by executing the following command.

git checkout -b [branch-name]

Afterwards, we will run the following command to compare the feature with masterthe branch.

git request-pull master
