3. Navigate to repo on GH, select *Code* pane (if not already selected), where you should see an alert showing recent commit, e.g., see below; click on *Compare & pull request**.*

Then click on *Create pull request* (bottom right arrow) or use the triangle pull down in that button to select *Create draft pull request*.

Notice that a check can spawn new checks, as seen here, where there were two checks started above, but three checks were processed (and passed). [image: Screen Shot 2023-03-07 at 21.50.38.png]
