    Complete A Manual Pull Request Loop

    You can make one bounded change manually, inspect it, verify it, commit it with a Conventional Commit, publish it, and inspect the resulting practice pull request.

    Outcome#

    You can make one bounded change manually, inspect it, verify it, commit it with a Conventional Commit, publish it, and inspect the resulting practice pull request.

    Concept#

    Agents and IDE buttons are safer after you understand the underlying branch, working tree, staged diff, commit, remote branch, and review boundary.

    Worked Example#

    The personal practice PR contains only the intended file, a Conventional Commit, and an honest verification record.

    A correct example uses these decisions:

    • Which PR do you create manually in this mission? The personal practice PR shown by the mission.
    • What must happen immediately before committing? Inspect git diff --cached and confirm every staged change.

    Common Trap#

    Using the background transport PR as the exercise, or staging every file with git add . before reviewing status.

    If Blocked#

    Do not use git reset --hard, broad deletion, or force push as a first repair. Preserve git status, the current branch, and the diff, then use the first safe PR lab recovery section or ask for help through the non-secret dashboard issue form.

    Understand Before Accepting AI Output#

    This mission is deliberately manual. An agent may explain a Git concept but must not perform the change, invent test output, or choose files to stage.

    Do the mission

    One bounded attempt

    Pass: 80% + every safety item
    Action

    In the separate practice repository, make the bounded note change, inspect status and both diffs, commit it, push it, and create your first draft PR manually.

    Expected

    The personal practice PR contains only the intended file, a Conventional Commit, and an honest verification record.

    Separate practice space

    Prepare the repository where you will learn Git

    The launcher creates or validates a separate exercise folder. It stops rather than replacing an existing unrelated folder.
