When we are working on code, this state is on stable i.e. glitches could occur

We work in the future branch
What do we do to merge our changes to the main branch?
We open a pool request or PR
When a PR is approved, can you merge it to the main branch?
Yes

What do we do once APR has been created
We request that one or other team members review the code before it’s merged into the base branch
