Sample
Full Sample URL: AskTheCode GPT Sample
In this example, the user asks AskTheCode to merge changes from the 2048-game
into the main
branch. AskTheCode verifies that there are no open pull requests between these branches and then proceeds to create a new pull request. The user can then review the pull request details and make any necessary modifications.

Conclusion
The Create Pull Request
feature is designed to enhance the collaborative development process by simplifying the creation of pull requests. This promotes efficient code reviews and project management, ensuring that changes are thoroughly reviewed and seamlessly integrated.
