For more information about required reviews, see "[About protected branches](/github/administering-a-repository/about-protected-branches#require-pull-request-reviews-before-merging)."
You can comment on a pull request, approve the changes, or request improvements before approving. For more information, see "[Reviewing proposed changes in a pull request](/articles/reviewing-proposed-changes-in-a-pull-request)."
{% data reusables.search.requested_reviews_search %}
{% tip %}
**Tip**: If a pull request you approved has changed significantly, you can dismiss your review. The pull request will need a new review before it can be merged. For more information, see "[Dismissing a pull request review](/articles/dismissing-a-pull-request-review)."
{% endtip %}
{% data reusables.repositories.sidebar-pr %}
{% data reusables.repositories.choose-pr-review %}
