title: Closing a pull request
|
|
intro: 'You may choose to *close* a pull request without [merging it into the upstream branch](/articles/merging-a-pull-request). This can be handy if the changes proposed in the branch are no longer needed, or if another solution has been proposed in another branch.'

{% tip %}

|
|
|
**Tip**: If you opened a pull request with the wrong base branch, rather than closing it out and opening a new one, you can instead change the base branch. For more information, see "[Changing the base branch of a pull request](/articles/changing-the-base-branch-of-a-pull-request)."

2. In the "Pull Requests" list, click the pull request you'd like to close.
|
|
3. At the bottom of the pull request, below the comment box, click **Close pull request**. 
|
|
4. Optionally, [delete the branch](/articles/deleting-unused-branches). This keeps the list of branches in your repository tidy.
