Subject: merge into branch currently not active / checked out
Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2007 09:22:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070617072225.GF23473@cip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de> (raw)

Hello,
is it possible to merge into a branch currently not active/checked out?
I have the following scenario:

        - One branch per feature (cstatus, headers, mutt-collapse-flags, small-fixes)
        - One upstream branch (master)
        - One branch that has every feature branch (tg)

(faui00u) [~/work/mutt/mutt] git branch
  cstatus
  headers
  master
  mutt-collapse-flags
  small-fixes
* tg

I want to merge master in every of the feature branches. Is that possible or
just bullshit because I don't have a working tree to handle conflicts?

        Thomas
