Once tests are passed, the pull request can be reviewed and merged by a committer.

To merge a pull request you need to have two remotes - one for Apache repo and another for GitHub mirror. They can be added like this:

git remote add apache https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-ignite
git remote add upstream git@github.com:apache/incubator-ignite.git

To merge a pull request to Apache Ignite master do the following (replace <xxx> with the pull request number):

Go to you fork, make sure it doesn't have any uncommitted changes.
Fetch pull request to a local branch:
- git fetch upstream pull/<xxx>/head:pr-<xxx>
Merge from the new branch to master:
- git merge --squash pr-<xxx>
Commit to local master. Do not forget to specify author and provide a comment that will close the pull request (see https://help.github.com/articles/closing-issues-via-commit-messages/):
- git commit --author=“John Doe <jdoe@apache.org>" -m “ignite-999 - Cool feature implemented. Closes #77.”
Push to 'apache' remote:
- git push apache master
