Working with DoltHub to Create Pull Requests
Introduction
Dolt is git for data, the world's only SQL database that you can branch and merge, clone and fork, push and pull just like a git repository. It's like Git and MySQL had a baby.
To make dolt familiar, we gave it the same command line interface as
git. So any command you know for git
works the same for dolt
, just
on tables instead of files.
And DoltHub has many elements that are modeled after GitHub, for the same reason. One of the most useful is the ability to create pull requests, see their diff, and merge them from the browser.
Walkthrough
In this demo, I walk through how to clone a database on DoltHub, make changes locally, open a pull request with those changes, and merge them back to the master branch. Fire up your terminal and follow along at home!
