Use pull requests

Using pull requests when applying changes to key branches, such as the release branch, allows multiple users to review changes between repository branches and merge edited code files, ensuring the quality of each build during application development.
To create a pull request, you need a source branch and a target branch.

• Source branch: Branch with updated changes
• Target branch: Branch containing changes

   • [Close pull request]: Closes the pull request. Click [Close] in the Close pull request popup window.
     

Resolve pull request conflicts

If you edit the same file in both the default branch (master) and a newly created branch, a conflict message is displayed when creating a pull request.

If a pull request conflict occurs, you can resolve the conflict using a Git client in the repository replicated to your local PC, and then merge the branch.

• For more information on using Git clients and replicating repositories, see Using Git client.
• For more information on resolving conflicts, see the official Git documentation.

If the target branch is "master," the source branch is "issue," and the conflicting file is "file.txt," to resolve conflicts between branches using a Git client:

1. Check out the target branch in the repository replicated to your local PC.

   $ git checkout master
   

2. Merge the source branch.
   • If a conflict between branches is detected, the following message is displayed:

     $ git merge issue
     Auto-merging file.txt
      CONFLICT (add/add): Merge conflict in file.txt
      Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.
     

3. Check the list of files where conflicts occurred.

   $ git status
    On branch master
    Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
    You have unmerged paths.
   (fix conflicts and run "git commit")
   
    Unmerged paths:
   (use "git add <file>..." to mark resolution)
   
        both added:      file.txt
   

4. Open the conflicting file and check the conflict display section.
   • The conflict content between both branches is displayed as follows:

      <<<<<<< HEAD
      master: Content of the target branch
      =======
      issue: Content of the source branch
      >>>>>>> issue
     

5. Resolve the conflicting content and save the file.
   • Before saving the file, completely delete the automatically inserted markers (<<<<<< HEAD - >>>>>> issue).
6. Push the edited file to the remote repository (SourceCommit repository).

   $ git add file.txt
   
   $ git commit
   
   $ git push
