Ok but, why it don't ask for a commit message when used in some other projects?

So in this case, working on branch1:Īnd voila! Your changes look as if they just happened, crucially after the ones from the remote branch, and at this point you can safely push your changes up to the remote. In fact, git has an inbuilt command that does the last of those options: rebases your local branch against the remote branch. You could also check out a new branch at this point, reset your tracking branch to the right place and then reapply your changes using cherry-pick or by rebasing and then fast-forward merging your branch. You could just let the merge go ahead but there are other options. Since the last common commit, there are commits on your local branch, and the remote one. ![]() * 927aad9 A random change of 731 to ideas2.txt | * 0ce808c (origin/branch1) Fixing template layout * 054f163 (HEAD, branch1) Installation instructions for the application It also happens really frequently in teams where all commits are to the master branch … yet another reason to have a decent branching strategy.Īll that’s happened is something like this: If you type git pull and expect a fast-forward update, but get a merge instead, don’t panic! This usually happens when we’re collaborating on a branch with other people, and we’ve made changes on our local version of a branch, and someone else (or the other you, if you use git to sync between multiple dev platforms) has made changes to the remote version of a branch in the meantime. ![]()
