A proposed branch change that teammates review, discuss, test, and merge into a target branch.
In practice, pull request becomes easier to use when you trace the input, the state it affects, and the output another part of the program can observe.
A practical example
Use pull request in a small example first, then vary one input and explain the resulting behavior before you run the code.
What to remember
Remember pull request as a specific relationship in a program, not as an isolated definition to memorize.
