Merge up to a specific commit


Sure, being in master branch all you need to do is:

git merge <commit-id>

where commit-id is hash of the last commit from newbranch that you want to get in your master branch.

You can find out more about any git command by doing git help <command>. It that case it's git help merge. And docs are saying that the last argument for merge command is <commit>..., so you can pass reference to any commit or even multiple commits. Though, I never did the latter myself.


To keep the branching clean, you could do this:

git checkout newbranchgit branch newbranch2git reset --hard <commit Id> # the commit at which you want to mergegit checkout mastergit merge newbranchgit checkout newbranch2

This way, newbranch will end where it was merged into master, and you continue working on newbranch2.


Run below command into the current branch folder to merge from this <commit-id> to current branch, --no-commit do not make a new commit automatically

git merge --no-commit <commit-id>

git merge --continue can only be run after the merge has resulted in conflicts.

git merge --abort Abort the current conflict resolution process, and try to reconstruct the pre-merge state.
