Synopsis
sh
plotwork board revision request-merge <board> <tab> <revision> [--note <text>] [--json]What it does
The revision waits for a person who manages the board, who merges or declines it in the portal. Nothing on main changes until then.
A board is named by its id, its address in the portal (an address with #tab-<id> also names the tab), or its name; a tab by its id or its name. A name costs one more call to look it up.
Options
| Option | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
--note <text> | Off | A note for the person who reviews it, up to 500 characters. |
--json | Off | Print one JSON document: the API's answer when it worked, or { "error": true, "errorCode", "message", "hint", "status" } when it did not. |
Examples
Ask for a merge, with a note.
sh

| Code | When |
|---|---|
0 | The merge was asked for. |
1 | The API refused the call (its code, words and a hint are printed), or could not be reached. |
2 | A mistake in the command line: an unknown option, a missing operand, a file or glob that matches nothing, or a settings file that cannot be read. Also when PLOTWORK_API_KEY is missing or refused, or the revision is not an id. |
