What is the command to merge branches in Git?

I’m working with multiple branches in Git and need to merge changes from one branch into another. What is the correct command to merge branches in Git, and are there any important considerations or steps I should follow to ensure the merge goes smoothly?

To merge branches in Git you can use git merge command.

Let’s see how you can do that:

Switch to the Branch You Want to Merge Into (typically main or master):

git checkout main

Run the Merge Command:

git merge <name-of-branch>

Replace <name-of-branch> with the name of the branch you want to merge.

If there will be any error, git will pause the merge and let you resolve them manually. After resolving, add the changes:

git add <file-name>

Complete the Merge: Once conflicts are resolved (if any), complete the merge with:

git commit

Example

To merge a branch called feature-branch into main:

git checkout main

git merge feature-branch
