Observe the merged contributions |
!!! If the session is live!!!: go see your collaborator merge your pull request! Most likely it will be a thumbs up and result in a merge! But your collaborator might also request a correction if they spot an error.
If you are following this tutorial on your own asynchronously: These are the steps of the merge:
-
Collaborator's screen - GitHub: In their pull request tab, they will inspect the files you changed and ensure that the parameters were inputted correctly so as to not break down their code down the line.
-
Collaborator's screen - GitHub: They will navigate back to the conversation tab of your pull request to write some comments, merge your pull request, and confirm the merge.
-
Collaborator's screen - RStudio: They will pull their GitHub repository into their local repository.
-
Collaborator's screen - RStudio: They will knit the Rmarkdown file
plot-trait-evolution.Rmd
which sources all the contributed files. Knitting a Rmarkdown file means rendering the Rmarkdown code (that integrate R code and Markdown code) into a defined format, here a html file. This file generates plots and figures based on the parameters that were contributed.
-
Collaborator's screen - RStudio: If all packages needed to run this script and to knit the file into a html page are installed, this file will generate plots and figures based on the parameters that were contributed.
This is how one can integrate data and code to a common repository shared amongst collaborators!
