What’s the most efficient way to create a pull request?
I see other people’s changes in my PR, which shouldn’t be included.
Currently, I do the following:
- Run
git pull mainto update my local repo. - Create a new branch.
- Make changes, commit them, and push the branch to remote.
- Open a pull request.
However, when I do this, I see other people’s changes in my PR, which shouldn’t be included. I tried using git rebase -i HEAD~5 to clean up my commits and then used git push --force-with-lease but this doesn’t feel like a professional or efficient approach
What could I be doing wrong, and how can I fix this to ensure only my changes are in the PR?
