<div class="attribution">

</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>Incorporates changes from the named commits (since the time their
histories diverged from the current branch) into the current
branch.  This command is used by <em>git pull</em> to incorporate changes
from another repository and can be used by hand to merge changes
from one branch into another.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Assume the following history exists and the current branch is
"<code>master</code>":</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>          A---B---C topic
         /
    D---E---F---G master</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Then "<code>git merge topic</code>" will replay the changes made on the
<code>topic</code> branch since it diverged from <code>master</code> (i.e., <code>E</code>) until
its current commit (<code>C</code>) on top of <code>master</code>, and record the result
in a new commit along with the names of the two parent commits and
a log message from the user describing the changes.</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>          A---B---C topic
         /         \
    D---E---F---G---H master</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The second syntax (&lt;msg&gt; <code>HEAD</code> &lt;commit&gt;&#8230;) is supported for
historical reasons.  Do not use it from the command line or in
new scripts.  It is the same as <code>git merge -m &lt;msg&gt; &lt;commit&gt;...</code>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The third syntax ("<code>git merge --abort</code>") can only be run after the
merge has resulted in conflicts. <em>git merge --abort</em> will abort the
merge process and try to reconstruct the pre-merge state. However,
if there were uncommitted changes when the merge started (and
especially if those changes were further modified after the merge
was started), <em>git merge --abort</em> will in some cases be unable to
reconstruct the original (pre-merge) changes. Therefore:</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong>Warning</strong>: Running <em>git merge</em> with uncommitted changes is
discouraged: while possible, it leaves you in a state that is hard to
back out of in the case of a conflict.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_options">OPTIONS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="dlist"><dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--commit
</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--no-commit
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Perform the merge and commit the result. This option can
        be used to override --no-commit.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>With --no-commit perform the merge but pretend the merge
failed and do not autocommit, to give the user a chance to
inspect and further tweak the merge result before committing.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--edit
</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--no-edit
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Invoke an editor before committing successful mechanical merge to
        further edit the auto-generated merge message, so that the user
        can explain and justify the merge. The <code>--no-edit</code> option can be
        used to accept the auto-generated message (this is generally
        discouraged). The <code>--edit</code> option is still useful if you are
        giving a draft message with the <code>-m</code> option from the command line
        and want to edit it in the editor.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Older scripts may depend on the historical behaviour of not allowing the
user to edit the merge log message. They will see an editor opened when
they run <code>git merge</code>. To make it easier to adjust such scripts to the
updated behaviour, the environment variable <code>GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT</code> can be
set to <code>no</code> at the beginning of them.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--ff
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        When the merge resolves as a fast-forward, only update the branch
        pointer, without creating a merge commit.  This is the default
        behavior.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--no-ff
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Create a merge commit even when the merge resolves as a
        fast-forward.  This is the default behaviour when merging an
        annotated (and possibly signed) tag.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--ff-only
</dt>
<dd>
<p>

<h2 id="_how_conflicts_are_presented">HOW CONFLICTS ARE PRESENTED</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>During a merge, the working tree files are updated to reflect the result
of the merge.  Among the changes made to the common ancestor&#8217;s version,
non-overlapping ones (that is, you changed an area of the file while the
other side left that area intact, or vice versa) are incorporated in the
final result verbatim.  When both sides made changes to the same area,
however, Git cannot randomly pick one side over the other, and asks you to
resolve it by leaving what both sides did to that area.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>By default, Git uses the same style as the one used by the "merge" program
from the RCS suite to present such a conflicted hunk, like this:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">

<code>&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;</code>, <code>=======</code>, and <code>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;</code>.  The part before the <code>=======</code>
is typically your side, and the part afterwards is typically their side.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The default format does not show what the original said in the conflicting
area.  You cannot tell how many lines are deleted and replaced with
Barbie&#8217;s remark on your side.  The only thing you can tell is that your
side wants to say it is hard and you&#8217;d prefer to go shopping, while the
other side wants to claim it is easy.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>An alternative style can be used by setting the "merge.conflictstyle"
configuration variable to "diff3".  In "diff3" style, the above conflict
may look like this:</p></div>

tell that the original just stated a fact, and your side simply gave in to
that statement and gave up, while the other side tried to have a more
positive attitude.  You can sometimes come up with a better resolution by

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>After seeing a conflict, you can do two things:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
Decide not to merge.  The only clean-ups you need are to reset
   the index file to the <code>HEAD</code> commit to reverse 2. and to clean
   up working tree changes made by 2. and 3.; <code>git merge --abort</code>
   can be used for this.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Resolve the conflicts.  Git will mark the conflicts in
   the working tree.  Edit the files into shape and
   <em>git add</em> them to the index.  Use <em>git commit</em> to seal the deal.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>You can work through the conflict with a number of tools:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
Use a mergetool.  <code>git mergetool</code> to launch a graphical
   mergetool which will work you through the merge.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Look at the diffs.  <code>git diff</code> will show a three-way diff,
   highlighting changes from both the <code>HEAD</code> and <code>MERGE_HEAD</code>
   versions.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Look at the diffs from each branch. <code>git log --merge -p &lt;path&gt;</code>
   will show diffs first for the <code>HEAD</code> version and then the
   <code>MERGE_HEAD</code> version.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Look at the originals.  <code>git show :1:filename</code> shows the
   common ancestor, <code>git show :2:filename</code> shows the <code>HEAD</code>
   version, and <code>git show :3:filename</code> shows the <code>MERGE_HEAD</code>

        This can only resolve two heads using a 3-way merge

        ancestor that can be used for 3-way merge, it creates a
        merged tree of the common ancestors and uses that as
        the reference tree for the 3-way merge.  This has been
        reported to result in fewer merge conflicts without
        causing mis-merges by tests done on actual merge commits
        taken from Linux 2.6 kernel development history.

        a <code>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;</code> marker.  An alternate style, "diff3", adds a <code>|||||||</code>
        marker and the original text before the <code>=======</code> marker.

merge.defaultToUpstream
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        If merge is called without any commit argument, merge the upstream
        branches configured for the current branch by using their last
        observed values stored in their remote-tracking branches.
        The values of the <code>branch.&lt;current branch&gt;.merge</code> that name the
        branches at the remote named by <code>branch.&lt;current branch&gt;.remote</code>
        are consulted, and then they are mapped via <code>remote.&lt;remote&gt;.fetch</code>
        to their corresponding remote-tracking branches, and the tips of
        these tracking branches are merged.

<dt class="hdlist1">
merge.ff
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        By default, Git does not create an extra merge commit when merging
        a commit that is a descendant of the current commit. Instead, the
        tip of the current branch is fast-forwarded. When set to <code>false</code>,
        this variable tells Git to create an extra merge commit in such
        a case (equivalent to giving the <code>--no-ff</code> option from the command
        line). When set to <code>only</code>, only such fast-forward merges are
        allowed (equivalent to giving the <code>--ff-only</code> option from the
        command line).
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
merge.log
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        In addition to branch names, populate the log message with at
        most the specified number of one-line descriptions from the
        actual commits that are being merged.  Defaults to false, and
        true is a synonym for 20.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
merge.renameLimit
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        The number of files to consider when performing rename detection
        during a merge; if not specified, defaults to the value of
        diff.renameLimit.
</p>
</dd>

merge.renormalize
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Tell Git that canonical representation of files in the
        repository has changed over time (e.g. earlier commits record
        text files with CRLF line endings, but recent ones use LF line
        endings).  In such a repository, Git can convert the data
        recorded in commits to a canonical form before performing a
        merge to reduce unnecessary conflicts.  For more information,
        see section "Merging branches with differing checkin/checkout
        attributes" in <a href="gitattributes.html">gitattributes(5)</a>.
