Re: GIT- Aptly named

I think it makes sense in the underlying system, but not in the UI that github puts over the top.

Originally it's "please pull the work I've done from my server into yours"

But now it's "I've pushed this work to the server we both use, please merge it".

So "merge request" is a better term. I think that's what gitlab calls it now, tbh.
