使用 git 将 dev 分支合并到 master 问题中

Question

I'm still relatively new to version control and thought I was being clever with the following. I was updating a CodeIgniter site to version 3 from 2. I branched master to CI_UPGRADE_3, did the upgrade the merged back to master.

It broke. The system folders files had the old and new entries in the files. I managed to get back to "pre" merge and am now in my CI_UPGRADE_3 branch wondering how I get back to master with the version on CI_UPGRADE_3.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Answer 1

What probably happened is someone else commited things on master while you were working.

No other possibilies: merge master into your branch, fix the conflicts and integrate the other modifications.

Then, when all looks ok on your branch, merge it into master. It should be a fast forward, and thus master will have exactly what you had on your branch.
