Hi,

unrelated to RIOT, but for the sake of completeness, there is also the native git command `git request-pull` [1], which let's you generate a pull request message that you can send per email to e.g. a mailing list.

    hi devs,
    i still had some troubles with git, and create correctly branched
    pulls. this is the best command line based
    tutorial  I found - and now even I seem to understand :)
    https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/making-a-pull-request/example


Keep in mind, that Pull Requests are not a feature of Git, but of the software that is provided by your repository hoster (in our case Github). What Atlassian understands as a Pull Request can differ vastly from what Github sees as a Pull Request (though I do not expect that much of a difference). Maybe it is helpful to fact-check in Github's Help page [1].

    i still did not find the correct way to add TAGS to pulls - can
    anyone give me a hint on that ?


`git pull` is a concatination of the commands `git fetch` and `git merge FETCH_HEAD` [2]. In so far it might be possible to `git pull -t` to get the tags. However in general it is advisable to get references and tags by purely fetching with `git fetch -t` [3].

The official documentation of git [4] is very good btw and includes also a book [5] on it's concepts with several examples of how to do stuff.

Github's documentation is in a few cases spotty but not bad, either [6].

Hope I could solve some questions,

Cheers,
Martine
