AWS CodeCommit Supports Pull Requests

Posted on: Nov 20, 2017

AWS CodeCommit now supports pull requests, which provide a mechanism to request code reviews and discuss code with collaborators. Previously, you had to use tools outside of CodeCommit to request code reviews, which made it difficult to track input and ensure all updates were incorporated. Now, you can use pull requests to enable a workflow where you can request code reviews, reviewers can view the commits and comment on the code, and you can merge code once you have final approval.

To create a pull request, commit changes to a code branch and then create a pull request between the branch and a parent. Pull requests can be created from the AWS Management Console, CLIs, and SDKs. Read our blog post to learn more about creating pull requests in AWS CodeCommit.

Support for pull requests is available everywhere AWS CodeCommit is offered. See here for a list of Regions and details.
