Pull Request (PR)

A request to merge changes from one branch into another, providing a place for code review, discussion, and automated checks.

Definition

Pull requests (merge requests in GitLab) show diffs, run CI status checks, collect approvals, and record discussion. Branch protection can require reviews and passing checks before merge.

Example

A PR from feature/vlan-api to main needs two approvals and a green CI run.

Exam tip

GitLab calls it a merge request (MR); the concept is the same.
