git - What is the difference between push branch and merge to master then push? -
one way:
git checkout mybranch git push origin mybranch:master another way:
git checkout master git merge mybranch git push what difference between these two?
this:
git checkout mybranch git push origin mybranch:master just attempts fast-forward (i.e. non-forced update) push of mybranch master. if master reachable mybranch, i.e. master doesn't contain commits mybranch doesn't have, push succeed; otherwise, push rejected.
the preceding git checkout mybranch irrelevant git push, since you're using refspec mybranch:master. can learn more refspecs @ git internals - refspec.
this:
git checkout master git merge mybranch git push actually merges mybranch master, , attempts push remote (with default configuration of git repo, remote origin).
because mybranch merged master, assuming remote master behind local one, i.e. doesn't contain commits local 1 doesn't have, push succeed, otherwise fail.
