Let's make our first Pull Request

Again, what is a Pull Request?

It simply means asking the project owner(or the maintainer) to merge/add your code to their main code.

In technical terms, Pull requests let you tell others about changes you've pushed to a branch in a repository on GitHub. Once a pull request is opened, you can discuss and review the potential changes with collaborators and add follow-up commits before your changes are merged into the base branch.

Steps for making a pull request:

  1. Fork the repository in which you want to make some changes. You can for my Demo repository for the practice.
  2. Once you fork it, make the necessary changes like add a new file, edit some code,etc.
  3. After you successfully commit the files, you will something like this:
  4. Click on pull request, you can view the changes you made. If everything is correct, click on Create Pull Request.
  5. Then, just add a brief description about the changes for the maintainer to know. Finally, click on Create Pull Request.

Congratulations!!💐 You have made your first pull request. What are you waiting for? Explore, collab and contribute.
