Git Rebase - Step By Step
Step 1
Fetch and update your local copy of the develop
branch to ensure you have the latest changes:
git checkout develop
git pull
Step 2
Switch to the branch you want to rebase:
git checkout <your-branch-name>
Step 3
Rebase your branch onto develop
:
git rebase develop
Step 4
If conflicts arise:
Git will pause the rebase and indicate the conflicting files.
Open the conflicted files and resolve the conflicts manually.
After resolving conflicts, add the resolved files:
git add <file-name>
Continue the rebase process:
git rebase --continue
Repeat these steps until all conflicts are resolved.
Step 5
Once the rebase completes successfully, check the history of your branch to ensure it includes the latest commits from develop
:
git log --oneline
Step 6
Since rebase rewrites history, you need to force push your branch to the remote repository:
git push origin <your-branch-name> --force
