Creating a Pull Request

Source: vignettes/creating_a_pull_request.Rmd

The Giotto packages exist at the drieslab repository on GitHub. Some guidelines for pull requests (PRs) are the following:

  • Edits to code should start on a new and purpose-made branch based on the packages’s dev branch (one of the following).
    • drieslab/Giotto@suite_dev
    • drieslab/GiottoVisuals@dev
    • drieslab/GiottoClass@dev
    • drieslab/GiottoUtils@dev
  • PRs when ready, should then be made to dev branches of the Giotto modules.
  • PRs will be reviewed by a core dev member after which a decision is made if it can be directly added to dev or if there are further revisions that are desired.
