git-merge-into: Merge a source branch into a specific destination branch.
$ git merge-into ${source_branch} ${destination_branch}
try on your machine

This command is used in Git to merge the changes from one branch into another specified branch.

Here's an explanation of each part of the command:

  • git merge-into: This is the command itself. It tells Git that you want to perform a merge operation.

  • ${source_branch}: This is a placeholder for the name of the branch that contains the changes you want to merge into the destination branch. You need to replace ${source_branch} with the actual name of the source branch.

  • ${destination_branch}: This is a placeholder for the name of the branch where you want to merge the changes from the source branch. You need to replace ${destination_branch} with the actual name of the destination branch.

To use this command, you would replace ${source_branch} and ${destination_branch} with the appropriate branch names. For example, if you want to merge the changes from a branch named feature into the master branch, the command would be:

git merge-into feature master

This command will take the commits made on the feature branch and apply them to the master branch, incorporating the changes from the source branch into the destination branch.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
