Opening a Pull Request from within Zepel
Before you begin: Ensure that you’ve enabled the integration for Github, Bitbucket, or GitLab.
If an item in Zepel is linked to a branch, you can quickly open a pull request and view the number of lines changed from within Zepel.
To open a pull request for the item linked to a branch,
-
Open the single item pop-up for the item that has been linked to a branch.
-
In the single item pop-up, under the heading “Linked Branches and Pull Requests”, you should be able to see the branch name linked to this item.
-
By clicking the “Open PR” button next to the branch name, you will be directed to your version control system you use with the pull request form pre-filled with the item title.
-
Once the pull request is created, you can view the number of lines added or removed from your codebase within Zepel.
- The pull request’s status will also automatically get updated between
Open
,Closed
, andMerged
based on your activity.
NOTE: If a branch is deleted after the pull request is created, both the branch and the pull request will be greyed out.
