Kelpie

Reviewing a pull request

New › Review is the feature routine pointed at someone else’s pull request:

  1. Pick the repo, then paste the pull request’s URL or type its number.
  2. Kelpie checks its branch out in a worktree of its own, so your checkout and your own features never move.
  3. If the repo has a kelpie.json, its dev server starts on ports of its own, the same as a feature’s.
  4. A session reads the change and explains it to you.

You click around the running branch in Preview instead of reading the diff cold, and ask the session about whatever does not make sense. Your line comments in the Diff tab post to GitHub as one review: comment, approve or request changes.

When you are done, Tear down in the session’s menu stops the dev server and removes the worktree.

Review is on the board only, with no kelpie command of its own yet.
