Update the Database with New Data
Once you've refined your corrections to the textbase or added new digital editions, you will need to pull these changes into the main or production branch in Github. To do that:
- Log on to GitHub.
- Click into the LIC-data repository
- Change the branch to development from main (which is the default)

- Click "Contribute" (or, "Compare" to compare your two branches. The branches will be compared in truncated form when you click "Contribute", too.)

- Be sure you are pulling the development branch into the main branch. If your branches are able to be merged, that will be noted. Consider adding a reviewer: Tonya Howe or John O'Brien.
- Add content describing your pull request--a title and a description. Then, click "Create Pull Request".

- An administrator will examine your pull request and go forward from there.
