But there are several PRs that want to change the Yolo Achievement Description, because it's not working and I want to know the exactly requirements.

Just open a pull request in one of your own repositories and merge it (without reviewing it).

[OtabekgithubJava]

yes

[AlvarezMar]

But I always need someone to review my commits before it can be merged

Hi @FleetAdmiralJakob,

I think there is such an explicit mention of how to get that Achievement.

Merged a pull request without code review

So, just open any repository and edit what you want and after that create a branch and commit your branch now create a pull request and merged it like that.

I assume this achievement is not achievable now. Because I have merged many times without reviewing my own PRs. But there is no sign of YOLO achievement.

The YOLO achievement is under your profile picture.

1. Create a new pull request in your repo and open it
2. In the top right corner at Reviewers section, request someone to review your pull request
3. Merge the pull request without finishing the review.

The YOLO achievement happened for me when a PR was merged for the first time! Just for your reference!

Sure, here are simpler steps to follow:

1. Make changes to your project.
2. Send those changes to your GitHub account.
3. Ask someone to check your changes by opening a review request.
4. While waiting for their feedback, include your changes in the main project.
5. Once your changes are part of the main project, let them know they can review your work.
6. Once they approve it, your changes are officially added to the main project.

Hi Friends, here's a step-by-step guide to achieving the YOLO achievement

1. Create a GitHub Repository
Start by creating a repository and make sure it's set to allow multiple contributors.

Tip

Helpful advice for doing things better or more easily.

2. Add Contributors (at least one)
Invite at least one other contributor to your repository. (Invite an account that you have access to the repository will work too)
You can do this by going to the repository settings and finding the "Collaborators" section.

3. Make Changes and Commit Changes
Make some changes to the repository. (It could be adding a new file, modifying an existing one, or anything else you would like.)

Once you have made your changes, commit them to your branch. Write a descriptive commit message explaining what you have done is a good practice.

4. Create a Pull Request
After committing your changes, go to the repository's page on GitHub and click the "Pull Request" button.
Compare your branch to the main branch and create the pull request.

Give your pull request a meaningful title that summarizes the changes you've made. If necessary, further explain the purpose of your changes.

5. Merge the Pull Request
Once the pull request is created, review it to ensure everything looks good. Then, click the "Merge Pull Request" button to merge your changes into the main branch.

Confirm the merge by selecting your email address and clicking the “Confirm merge” button. This finalizes the process.

That's It!

Congratulations, you've successfully achieved the YOLO achievement by collaborating with others and making changes to a repository.
