Lesson 8 / 20
Reviewing a Pull Request
Review pull requests with line comments, approvals and requested changes, and see how reviews gate merging.
Line comments & reviews
Reviewers can comment on specific lines, then submit a review as Comment, Approve, or Request changes.
Requested changes
"Request changes" blocks merging (when required reviews are enabled) until the author pushes fixes and the reviewer re-approves.
Quick check: What does submitting a review as "Request changes" do?
- Immediately merges the PR
- Deletes the pull request
- Approves the PR
- Blocks merging until addressed and re-reviewed
Answer
Blocks merging until addressed and re-reviewed — It flags the PR as needing changes and blocks merging if required reviews are enforced.
