如何将另一个分支的值拉到我的本地分支？

Question

I am new to git and I am running into the following issue- I created a branch 'Test' from develop. I am trying to pull changes from branch 'Working' (which is also based on develop) onto my local branch. I don't want any of my changes to affect develop or 'Working'. How would I do this?

I am not sure whether this is a merge or a rebase.

Answer 1

Either will work, but the result is different.

• git merge working will create a single, new merge commit which combines the history of both branches. The commits are shared by both branches.
• git rebase test working^{commit} && git push. HEAD:test && git checkout test git rebase test working^{commit} && git push. HEAD:test && git checkout test will rebase, ie copy , the commits on working to test . The commits are now duplicated and separate versions of the commits exist in both branches.

The third option is to cherry-pick, which is similar to rebase, but switches source and destination.

• git cherry-pick test..working will cherry-pick, ie copy , the commits on working and apply them to your test branch. The commits are duplicated and separate in both branches.

History after merge:

      D-E         -- working
     /   \
A-B-C     \       -- development
   \       \
    F-G-----M     -- test (M = merge commit)

History after rebase or cherry-pick:

      D-E         -- working
     /
A-B-C             -- development
   \    
    F-G-C'-D'-E'  -- test (C', D', E' = copied commits)
