# Pull requests from Perfloop.

For the person who reviews a pull request Perfloop opened: how to ask for a change, what Perfloop does by itself, and what you can change yourself.

## Ask for a change

There are no commands. Comment, suggest a change, or submit a review in plain words, as you would for any contributor. Perfloop reads them and either answers on the pull request or pushes a new commit to it. It does not open a second pull request.

When Perfloop starts work on your comment, it adds 👀 to it. A comment from someone who can push to the repository can start work at once. Other comments, and some answers, wait until the workspace that opened the pull request approves them.

## What Perfloop does by itself

- When a check fails, Perfloop works on a fix and pushes it to this pull request.
- When the pull request no longer merges cleanly, Perfloop rebuilds the change on the current target branch and updates this pull request.
- Perfloop never approves or merges.

## Change it yourself

When the branch is in a fork that Perfloop owns, GitHub does not let you push to it. Use a suggested change in a review instead, or merge and follow up with your own commit. When the branch is in your own repository, you can push to it, and Perfloop never overwrites a head you changed.

To stop Perfloop's work on a pull request, close it.
