Hi@akhtar,

To implement this task you can follow the below given steps.

• Set your GitHub repo with credentials.

• After that you have to set your branch name to merge. Go to source code management->Additional Behaviours->Merge before build.

• Set your user name and user email. Go to source code management->Additional Behaviours->Custom user name and email.

Now your job is ready to merge your branch. You can also go through the below GitHub link to get more information.

what is custom user name?

You can give any user name and email. Jenkins needs one username and email id to connect with GitHub.
