PR flow

Push the branch and set up the PR opening flow.

Pull request workflow from a branch

Changes completed on a feature branch are first pushed to the remote repository. Then, a pull request is opened on GitHub to request merging that branch into the main branch. Team members review the changes and add comments when necessary.

git push -u origin feature/user-login

# Open a pull request on GitHub

Pull request review process

A pull request allows changes to be reviewed before they are added to the main branch. Reviewers can add line comments, request changes, or approve the PR. Necessary corrections can be made by pushing new commits to the same feature branch.
