Git Pull Requests explained - Computer Stuff They Didn't Teach You #5

Pull Requests are a lie! WHAT!? Scott talks about how Git Pull Requests work and merges one in live in this the second episode of our spontaneous training on Git 101!

[KenanCasey]

I’d love to hear your explanation of merge vs rebase.

This is pure gold! Scott, you are the Bob Ross of programming. Big concepts come through but you make it look and feel easy and make it understandable, and your tone of voice pace of teaching are just right to make sure it sticks in the grey matter. I would gladly pay for this material and you have it presented for the cost of watching a 20 minute video. Thank you! You have an upvote and a new subscriber!

I've done git for years and I know it like the back of my hand, but I still watched this, not sure why :D Scott's just too good!

This is an amazing tutorial. As a git newbie I appreciate and look forward more.

This video is about pull request from a maintainer perspective. Please make a video about pull request from a contributor perspective.

Suppose I forked a repo and clone it in my local machine. After that create a new branch to start coding. In this time my local git repo's remote will be my forked version. How to create an upstream remote to the original repo so that I can pull changes made in the original repo while I am working on my forked version?

I used git for years, this is the best explanation of 'Pull Request' that I've ever heard. Easy to understand, intuitive... Superb!!

[KameleonKraft]

you teach the stuff in the simplest way and I've learnt a lot from you. thanks a lot...

[ManuelFabbri]

Thank you Scott.

PS: I'm Italian and I usually use english subtitles. While I was watching this video, after a while I realized that I didn't activate them and I was just listening :)

Thanks Scott!! I love these videos because even if you already know this stuff you also learn how to transmit that knowledge!! It is really hard to teach and this serves as a guide on how to approach it!! 👏

One of the best 20 minutes I've spent learning about the confusing parts of git pull. Subscribed and thank you.

[christophergrow]

Thank you so much. As an ex TFS user and GIT newb, this was super helpful.

[agarwalpeeush]

Thanks Scott for another git video. I learnt about PullRequests and what's going behind when we pull/review/merge requests in the repository from another user. 👌

[mwonsil]

Excellent. Great to see both the command line and what the "short cuts" do.

[julioribeiro]

Daam!! for the first time I really understand what I'm doing when (poorly) using Git. Thanks, man. Very didactic, the way I appreciate as someone who loves to teach others too.

[softshells]

Thanks Scott— it’s always a pleasure to listen to you. I learned something new today!

[RajeshDuggal]

Excellent video! It's a good idea for people learning the concept of "git pull", to understand that it's doing a git fetch followed by a merge.

[indylawi]

As always, great job explaining the nitty-gritty of Pull request with clarity. Thanks a lot, Scott!

[vlplbl]

You explain everything very clearly. It's a pleasure to watch.

Awesome tutorial. Never got to learn properly about pull requests until now.
