Why Pull Requests Are A BAD IDEA
Pull requests are widely used. Most teams create a pull request somewhere on their route to releasing change. They see them as the only way to conduct code reviews, but they are not. Pull requests were invented to manage large, open-source projects, but working within an organisation with a team is not the same thing as open-source programming. In general, our advice is don’t do pull requests, but why is that, and what should you do instead?
In this episode, Dave Farley, author of Continuous Delivery and Modern Software Engineering explores the idea of pull requests and the issues that they raise. Dave offers several alternatives and discusses the pros and cons of each, ending up with some concrete advice on what you should do instead.
