Welcome to our #100DaysOfOSS series. Until October 31, we'll be doing Open Source Software (OSS) terms from A to Z. We'll be diving into a different letter of the English alphabet, uncovering OSS concepts, and sharing our thoughts on them.
Today, we're covering the letter "P" for Pull Request.
Pull Request: In open-source development, a pull request is a proposed code change submitted by a contributor. It allows others to review, discuss, and potentially merge the changes into the main codebase.
If you want to learn more about Pull Requests, check out some of our resources:
- Understanding Why Pull Requests Get Rejected in Open Source Projects
- Writing Your First Pull Request: Tips, Best Practices, and AI-Powered Tools for Success
- How to Create a Good Pull Request Template (and Why You Should Add Gifs)
- Tips for getting your Pull Request reviewed on GitHub
Now, we want to hear from you! What other OSS terms can you think of that start with the letter "P"?
Remember to use the hashtag #100DaysOfOSS if you share on social media, and don't forget to tag us @saucedopen so we can follow along.
