Steps to bring the changes made in a pull request into your local machine:
- Find the
idof pull request you want to test (say it is#2361) as well as thename of source branchin the pull request (say it isrenovate/prisma-monorepo)
-
When working on a fork of a upstream repo,
git remote -vmay look like this:
origin git@github.com:atosh502/chapter.git (fetch) origin git@github.com:atosh502/chapter.git (push) upstream https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/chapter.git (fetch) upstream https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/chapter.git (push)
-
The PR is likely made against a branch(destination:
main) in the upstream repo. In order to get the branch(source:renovate/prisma-monorepo) containing the changes for PR to the local repo use the following:
# git fetch origin pull/<ID>/head:<BRANCH_NAME> git fetch upstream pull/2361/head:renovate/prisma-monorepo
- After this the upstream branch from PR will be available as a local branch and we can test the changes.
