Hi all,
I would like to use git-fmt-merge-msg to produce automatic summaries
of what commits are being merged when I merge one branch into the
other - like I see all the time in git.git, etc. The problem I am
having is that I can only seem to get it to work with remote branches
via .git/FETCH_HEAD - basically I don't know what else I can feed it
to do what I want.
Say I have a local repo with no remotes so no .git/FETCH_HEAD. Can I
use git-fmt-merge-msg to produce such a summary when I'm just merging
local branches? I've tried feeding just about everything I can find
in .git/ into it but with no luck. Is there anything generated during
the merge that can be used as input if I do a merge --no-commit? A
list of merged commits or something?
I'm sure I've missed something simple here... Alternatively, am I just
barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks,
Rob
