How to do Git pull in PyCharm?

1 views

Ugh, merging someone elses code again. In PyCharm, I go to Git, then GitHub, then View Pull Requests. Find the right one, double-click, and scan the changes. Honestly, sometimes I dread this part, hoping there are no conflicts. Lets see what surprises this pull request holds. Double-clicking the file... deep breath, here we go.

Okay, so, how do you pull in PyCharm? It’s funny, isn’t it, how something so technically simple can be so nerve-wracking? Like, “Ugh, another pull request. Whose code am I wrestling with this time?” Anyway, in PyCharm, you head up to the menu and go to Git, then GitHub, then find “View Pull Requests.” (It’s usually tucked in there somewhere… or is that just me?)

Then you have to find the right one, of course. There’s always that moment of scanning the list, hoping it’s not a monster pull request from Bob who never comments his code. You double-click the request and… scan. This is the part I hate. Just scrolling through, trying to make sense of what changed, hoping it doesn’t clash with what I just did. You know what I mean? Like that time I spent hours refactoring the login page, only to find Sarah had done a complete overhaul on the same files? Ugh. Nightmares.

So, this time, let’s see… Double-click the file itself (fingers crossed). Deep breath. Here we go. (I swear, it’s like opening a present, sometimes good, sometimes… well, let’s just say “less good.”)
