Yesterday, I wrote about how much I loved working with the team at Cloud Four on a recent project.
One of the things they do very well that most dev teams I’ve worked with do not is make full use of GitHub’s PR Templates feature.
In my consulting work, I see a lot of PRs that include either a one-line comment or not description at all.
But Cloud Four’s PRs always include a rich amount of detail that makes it much easier for the reviewer to understand what’s going on and what to look at.
I know what you mean. Quite often when I’ve worked in a project where there is a pull request template, a lot of the time people don’t bother to fill it out. However, in an ideal world, people would be proud of the work that they’ve delivered, and take the time to describe the changes when raising a pull request.
