			{{Bot_proposes\|'''candidate branch''' (CB) — a branch offered for merging into one of our repositories, pushed to githouse as <code><author>/<topic></code> and named <code><repo>:<branch></code> (<code>magenta:re/foo</code>), or <code><repo>#<n></code> if it has a pull request. It's what we used to call a PR; a pull request is now just GitHub's page for a candidate branch. Every open one is on the ramp, with its diff and its talk, and a person merges it from there.

	{{Bot_proposes\|'''round''' — one person's ask in a Mood, and every emergent turn that follows from it (build, review, fix), until the work is done or it needs a person again. A round ends when the last turn hands back to a person. Keeping a round whole means passing tools along: a review that asks for changes mentions the author, so the fix happens on the same kind of turn (see [[Cryptograss:Moods/Instructions]]).

New page
