Atlassian automatically adds commits to pull request

[Willicious 8]

I'm attempting to create a pull request on BitBucket.

 

I've taken the following steps, in this order:

 

1. Made changes to the repo

2. Created NewBranch in SourceTree

3. Checked out NewBranch in SourceTree

4. Committed changes to NewBranch

5. Commited a test change to the master branch just to make doubly sure that NewBranch is in fact separate from the master - it is

6. Pushed everything to origin

7. Opened BitBucket in a web browser

8. Clicked Create > Pull request

9. Chosen NewBranch as the source branch

 

From here, I get different results depending on what I do next.

 

10. Chosen the destination repo, and chosen (a new branch with the same name i.e. NewBranch) as the destination branch

 

If I do this, the most recent 8* commits are added to the PR, from both the source branch (i.e. NewBranch) and the master branch.

 

10. Chosen the destination repo's master branch as the destination branch

 

If I do this, the most recent 8 commits are added to the PR, but I get little yellow warning symbols and an error saying "something went wrong".

 

Clearly, I'm not used to working with branches. Based on the above, can anyone see what I might be doing wrong?

*NOTE: NewBranch consists of a single commit, the other 7 are from master

Still haven't managed to figure this one out, hopefully getting some help with it tomorrow (Monday 25th). I'll post back here if a solution is found.

I can't follow your description above and I can't make it match with what I see on your repos.

I suggest you:

1. Ditch BitBucket - it sucks.
   Use your repo on github instead.
2. Ditch SourceTree - see above.
   Install Fork.

If you tell me what the source and target branches are I can tell you how to do it.

...and FWIW your old SuperLemmix repo on BitBucket appears to be gone. Now I only see the NeoLemmix repo.

Yeah, that's because I'm in the process of migrating over to GitHub (as you've suggested), because BitBucket sucks 😉

 

I'm getting some help with the BitBucket PR at the moment, once that's done I'll probably switch completely to GitHub for all projects.
