Code Pull Request

A Code Pull Request is a collaborative review version control feature that proposes code pull request code changes from code pull request source branches to code pull request target branches.

• AKA: Code PR, Code Merge Request, Code Review Request, Code Change Proposal.
• Context:
  • It can typically display Code Pull Request Diffs through code pull request change visualizations.
  • It can typically enable Code Pull Request Comments through code pull request discussion threads.
  • It can typically require Code Pull Request Approvals through code pull request review workflows.
  • It can often trigger Code Pull Request Builds through code pull request continuous integrations.
  • It can often enforce Code Pull Request Checks through code pull request quality gates.
  • It can often maintain Code Pull Request Historys through code pull request activity logs.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Small Code Pull Request to being a Large Code Pull Request, depending on its code pull request change size.
  • It can range from being a Simple Code Pull Request to being a Complex Code Pull Request, depending on its code pull request modification scope.
  • It can range from being a Independent Code Pull Request to being a Dependent Code Pull Request, depending on its code pull request relationship structure.
  • It can range from being a Draft Code Pull Request to being a Ready Code Pull Request, depending on its code pull request completion status.
  • It can range from being a Feature Code Pull Request to being a Fix Code Pull Request, depending on its code pull request change purpose.
  • ...
  • It can implement Code Pull Request Template for code pull request standardization.
  • It can utilize Code Pull Request Label for code pull request categorization.
  • It can maintain Code Pull Request Milestone for code pull request release planning.
  • It can support Code Pull Request Automation for code pull request workflow efficiency.
  • It can enable Code Pull Request Protection for code pull request branch safety.
  • ...
• Examples:
  • Standard Code Pull Requests, such as:
    • Feature Code Pull Request for code pull request feature addition.
    • Bug Fix Code Pull Request for code pull request defect correction.
    • Documentation Code Pull Request for code pull request content update.
  • Special Code Pull Requests, such as:
    • Stacked Code Pull Request for code pull request sequential change.
    • Emergency Code Pull Request for code pull request urgent fix.
    • Refactoring Code Pull Request for code pull request code improvement.
  • Platform-Specific Code Pull Requests, such as:
    • GitHub Code Pull Request for code pull request GitHub workflow.
    • GitLab Code Merge Request for code pull request GitLab workflow.
    • Bitbucket Code Pull Request for code pull request Bitbucket workflow.
  • ...
• Counter-Examples:
  • Direct Code Commit, which pushes code changes without code pull request review process.
  • Code Branch Merge, which combines code branch contents without code pull request discussion.
  • Code Repository Fork, which copies code repository content rather than proposing code pull request change.
