Hi at all, I'd like to announce the exisntance of my small git test merge tool. After reading Linux kernel mailing list may remember that Linus complained about such too frequent test merges when a subsystem maintainer asked to pull from a branch full of "useless merges" in the man page of git-rerere I had to start it.. $ git clone git://mawercer.de/git-test-merge ============= ======================================================= small HOWTO: $ alias gtm=git-test-merge $ gtm h # show the help $ gtm s mytestmerge branch{1,2} # define testmerge "mytestmerge" which is formed by merging branch1 and branch2 $ gtm u mytestmerge # merge first using octopus, if it fails merge with # the previous merge result with next branch until # no branches are left to merge If the merge fails you can resolve the conflicts and run $ gtm c # you don't have to git-add the resolved files, will be done by the script I hope its useful for you as well. If you have patches you may push them instantly. If it's obsolete because there is a better tool I appreciat you pointing me to it Sincerly Marc Weber -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
