My personal projects on GitHub oftentimes. It’s very flattering when other people get interested in your personal work, and actively use it. GitHub pull request is how other people suggest changes to our code.
Pull requests can be merged in GitHub with just one click, but it’s also possible – and recommended – trying the changes locally first. The usual way to do this is creating a local branch, then pulling the modified code onto it.
As an example, let’s take pull request #75 of WinSafe. We create another branch called foo and check the pull request onto it by using:
git fetch origin pull/75/head:foo git checkout foo
Simple enough, and for some reason it took me years to try this for the first time today.
