Merge your changes so you can jump onto the next task.
When you’ve finished with your branch and are ready to merge it back into the base branch, you can do so from the sidebar on the branch page. Here’s how it works, and what happens after merging.
As a branch author, you’ll see the large Merge Changes… button in the branch info sidebar to the right of the branch page. Merging works a little differently on Pierre than other platforms:
As an author, here’s what you’ll see on your branches:
You can merge at anytime, even if the changes aren’t your own branch.
Merging requires two clicks—after you click the merge button, we’ll always ask you to confirm it.
Confirming the merge will squash your changes, push them into the default branch (usually main
),
and the commit message will be updated with the branch’s title as well as the AI-powered summary and
highlights.
The sidebar looks a little different if you’re viewing someone else’s branch. The approve button is for reviewers to approve the branch before it’s merged. If you’re a reviewer, you’ll see this button on the bottom toolbar as well as the merge button.
Clicking Approve will open up a custom comment form where you can leave an optional message with your approval.
When you’ve approved a branch, the bottom toolbar updates to reflect the change.
