The command "git switch --merge ${branch_name}" is a Git command used to switch to a different branch and merge that branch with the current branch.
Here's how each component of the command works:
-
"git switch": This is a command in Git used to switch to a different branch. It allows you to change your active branch to a specific branch.
-
"--merge": This flag specifies that you want to merge the specified branch with the current branch. It tells Git to perform a merge operation when switching branches.
-
${branch_name}: This is a placeholder that represents the name of the branch you want to switch to and merge. You need to replace ${branch_name} with the actual name of the branch you want to switch to and merge.
Overall, this command is used to switch to a different branch in your Git repository and merge it with the current branch, allowing you to combine the changes made in both branches.
