Merging branches

Hi,

I have a git history which looks something like as in the figure above. I
want to merge Branch A in Branch B. However, the commits a1, a2 and a3 are
ugly and so I don't want those commits in my Branch B log. Is there anyway
that I can only pull the final form of Branch A without pulling the whole
history of Branch A?

Thanks

Yes, you use rebase to squash or drop those commits, and then merge the branch.

Or just "git merge --squash".

Have fun,

Hi, Git.


While merging branches I get conflicts in files that I have not touch.
Why they occour??

My suggestion is that that files that was automerged GIT counts as
they were modified by me, so next automerge to those files fill FAIL.

If so, how I can escape from that CONFLICT situation?
