git-imerge

Perform a merge or rebase between two git branches incrementally. Conflicts between branches are tracked down to pairs of individual commits, to simplify conflict resolution.

  • Start imerge-based rebase (checkout the branch to be rebased, first):

git imerge rebase {{branch_to_rebase_onto}}

  • Start imerge-based merge (checkout the branch to merge into, first):

git imerge merge {{branch_to_be_merged}}

  • Show ASCII diagram of in-progress merge or rebase:

git imerge diagram

  • Continue imerge operation after resolving conflicts (git add the conflicted files, first):

git imerge continue --no-edit

  • Wrap up imerge operation, after all conflicts are resolved:

git imerge finish

  • Abort imerge operation, and return to the previous branch:

git-imerge remove && git checkout {{previous_branch}}
