Git Merge Origin Master Branch with Branch

Git merge is a command used to integrate changes from one branch into another branch. When working with multiple branches, it is essential to keep them in sync to ensure smooth integration of changes made in one branch with the other branches.

To merge the changes made in the master branch with the current branch, we can use the following command:

git merge origin master

Here, origin refers to the remote repository and master is the branch from which we want to merge the changes.

Before merging the changes, it is essential to make sure that the branch we are currently working on is up-to-date with the remote master. To do this, we need to fetch the changes from the master branch of the remote repository using the following command:

git fetch origin master

Once we have fetched the changes, we can merge them into our current branch using the git merge command. If there are any conflicts between the two branches, Git will prompt us to resolve them before completing the merge.

After successfully merging the changes, we can push them back to the remote repository using the git push command.

In summary, merging changes from the master branch of the remote repository with the current branch can be done using the git merge origin master command. Before merging, we need to make sure that the current branch is up-to-date with the remote master branch by using the git fetch origin master command. If there are any conflicts, we need to resolve them before completing the merge. Finally, we can push the merged changes back to the remote repository using the git push command.
