# Merge Requests
Merge requests allow you to exchange changes you made to source code
## Checkout merge requests locally
Locate the section for your GitLab remote in the `.git/config` file. It looks like this:
```
[remote "origin"]
url = https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
```
Now add the line `fetch = +refs/merge-requests/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/merge-requests/*` to this section.
It should looks like this:
```
[remote "origin"]
url = https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
fetch = +refs/merge-requests/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/merge-requests/*
```
Now you can fetch all the merge requests requests:
```
$ git fetch origin
From https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce.git
* [new ref] refs/merge-requests/1/head -> origin/merge-requests/1
* [new ref] refs/merge-requests/2/head -> origin/merge-requests/2
...
```
To check out a particular merge request:
```
$ git checkout origin/merge-requests/1
```
