How we use Pull Requests to build GitHub

GitHub recently launched a new About section featuring high-resolution logos, team photos, and job listings, but the focus of the blog post is on how a massive Pull Request facilitated this update. The Pull Request involved 130 commits and 91 comments from 10 contributors over two months, illustrating GitHub's collaborative approach akin to an open-source project. Pull Requests at GitHub are essential for fostering discussion, allowing team members to contribute where they can add value, and tracking progress. The post emphasizes opening Pull Requests early to encourage ongoing feedback and acknowledges that not all Pull Requests need to be merged, as they can serve to refine ideas and strategies.
