NAME
git-request-pull - Generates a summary of pending changesSYNOPSIS
git request-pull [-p] <start> <URL> [<end>]
DESCRIPTION
Generate a request asking your upstream project to pull changes into their tree. The request, printed to the standard output, begins with the branch description, summarizes the changes and indicates from where they can be pulled.OPTIONS
-pInclude patch text in the output.
<start>
Commit to start at. This names a commit that
is already in the upstream history.
<URL>
The repository URL to be pulled from.
<end>
Commit to end at (defaults to HEAD). This
names the commit at the tip of the history you are asking to be pulled.
When the repository named by <URL> has the commit at a tip of a ref
that is different from the ref you have locally, you can use the
<local>:<remote> syntax, to have its local name, a colon
:, and its remote name.
EXAMPLES
Imagine that you built your work on your master branch on top of the v1.0 release, and want it to be integrated to the project. First you push that change to your public repository for others to see:git push https://git.ko.xz/project master
git request-pull v1.0 https://git.ko.xz/project master
git push https://git.ko.xz/project master:for-linus
git request-pull v1.0 https://git.ko.xz/project master:for-linus
