ABSTRACT
The goal of this project is to collect pull requests data using the GitHub API and store it in a dataset for further use/analysis. The challenges faced in this project include lack of experience in the query language/mining data and objective change in stage two. To tackle this project, I have read several research papers and checked through code and tools used to retrieve data which lead to being successful in fetching data at the end. For further work, this dataset can be useful for applying machine learning techniques for automatically generating pull request documentation and developing code optimization tools.
