Step by Step Explanation of Create and Merge Branch with Github

I already created my demo repository on my github account. You can also create your own. i will clone my repo by using following command:

git clone git@github.com:savanihd/Demo-Git.git

After clone i will go on that project.

cd Demo-Git/

Now i will check how much branch in my repo now. right now i have only master. you can see both screen.

git branch

* master

Now create master.html file in your master branch as like bellow:

master.html

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<title>Master File</title>

</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>

Now you can push this file on your master branch using following command:

git add .

git commit -m "master file created"

git push origin master

Now i will create new branch for development using following command:

git branch dev

Check branch is created or not:

git branch

dev

* master

We created dev branch but still we are in master branch. So now we have to checkout in dev branch using following command:

git checkout dev

git branch

* dev

master

Now we are in dev branch. So we will create dev.html file on dev branch. so let's create with following code.

dev.html

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<title>Dev File</title>

</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>

Now you can push this file on your dev branch using following command:

git add .

git commit -m "created dev file"

git push origin dev

Now we merge dev branch to master branch.

Let's run following command:

git checkout master

git merge dev

git push origin master

Now you can see on github repository and check it.

master branch merge with dev.

Output:

I hope it can help you...
