Reviewing a Pull Request

Comments, approvals, and requested changes.

Line comments & reviews

Reviewers can comment on specific lines, then submit a review as Comment, Approve, or Request changes.

Requested changes

"Request changes" blocks merging (when required reviews are enabled) until the author pushes fixes and the reviewer re-approves.

Quick check: What does submitting a review as "Request changes" do?
