Create pull requests (PRs) to change, review, and merge code in a Git repository. You can create PRs from branches in the upstream repository or from branches in your fork of the repository. Your team can review the PRs and give feedback on changes. Reviewers can step through the proposed changes, leave comments, and vote to approve or reject the PRs. Depending on branch policies and other requirements, your PR might need to meet various criteria before you can complete the PR and merge the changes into the target branch.

For PR guidelines and management considerations, see About pull requests.

Prerequisites

  • To create and complete a PR, you must be a member of the Contributors security group or have the corresponding permissions.

  • To view or review PRs, you must be a member of an Azure DevOps project with Basic access or higher. If you aren't a project member, get added.

  • To contribute to a PR, you must be a member of the Readers security group or have the corresponding permissions.

  • To learn more about permissions and access, see Default Git repository and branch permissions and About access levels.

You can create a new PR from the Azure DevOps project website, from Visual Studio, or from the Azure DevOps CLI.

From the Azure DevOps project website, you can create a new PR from:

Select Create a pull request to go to a page where you can enter your PR details and create the PR.

Create a PR from a linked work item

You can create a PR directly from an Azure Boards work item linked to the branch.

  2. In the Development area of the work item, select Create a pull request.

The link takes you to a page where you can enter your PR details and create the PR.

Add updates with cherry-pick

You can copy commits from one branch to another by using cherry-pick. Unlike a merge or rebase, cherry-pick only brings the changes from the commits you select, instead of all the changes in a branch.

To cherry-pick changes from a completed PR, select Cherry-pick on the PR's Overview page. To copy changes from an active PR, select Cherry-pick from the PR's More options menu. This action creates a new branch with the copied changes. You can then create a new PR from the new branch. For detailed instructions, see Copy changes with cherry-pick.

Switch source and target branches of your pull request

Before the first time you save a PR, you can switch the source and target branches of the PR by selecting the Switch source and target branches icon next to the branch names. Once the PR is active, this icon goes away, but you can still change the target branch of the PR.

Note

This feature requires Azure DevOps Server 2019.1 update or later version.

Add or edit pull request title and description

On the New pull request page, enter a Title and detailed Description of your changes, so others can see what problems the changes solve. On a new PR as in existing PRs, you can see the Files and Commits in your PR on separate tabs. You can add reviewers, link work items, and add tags to the PR.

When you're ready to have your changes reviewed, select Create to create the PR.

Adding details to a new P R.

Don't worry if you don't have all of the work items, reviewers, or details ready when you create your PR. You can add or update these items after you create the PR.

Edit PR title and description

Keep the PR title and description up to date so reviewers can understand the changes in the PR.

You can update the title of an existing PR by selecting the current title and updating the text. Select the Save icon to save changes, or select the Undo icon to discard the changes.

Edit the PR description by selecting the Edit icon in the Description section.

These work items are also filtered by date and user, with only items created or updated in the last 30 days shown, and they should be created by, assigned to, or authorized as the current user.

Remove work item links by selecting the remove button that appears when you hover over the work item. remove icon Removing a link only removes the link between the work item and the PR. Links created in the branch or from commits stay in the work item.

Add labels to a pull request

You can communicate extra information about a PR to the reviewers by using labels. Maybe the PR is still a work in progress, or it's a hotfix for an upcoming release. Use labels to communicate important details and help organize PRs.

Note

Using PR labels requires TFS 2018.2 or later version.

To add a label when creating a PR, choose Add label. After you create a PR, you can manage its labels in the Labels section.

Email pull request notifications to stakeholders

You can share a pull request by email to notify reviewers and communicate with team members. To share a PR:

  1. Select More options on the PR Overview page, and then select Share pull request.

    Screenshot that shows selecting Share pull request on a P R's Overview page.

  2. On the Share pull request screen, add recipients by typing their names in the To: field and selecting from the user names that appear. You can also remove recipients.

  3. Add an optional message in the Note (Optional) field, and then select Send. Recipients receive an email requesting their attention and linking to the PR.

Note

If you use the built-in email feature, you can only send the email to project members' individual addresses. Adding a team group or security group to the To: line isn't supported. If you add an email account that the system doesn't recognize, you receive a message that one or more recipients of your email don't have permissions to read the mailed pull request. For the email feature to work, your administrator for Azure DevOps Server must configure an SMTP server.
