The merge method
The method does a merge over the current working copy. It gets an Oid object as a parameter and returns a MergeResult object.
As its name says, it only does the merge, does not commit nor update the branch reference in the case of a fastforward.
For the moment, the merge does not support options, it will perform the merge with the default ones defined in GIT_MERGE_OPTS_INIT libgit2 constant.
Example:
>>> branch_head_hex = '5ebeeebb320790caf276b9fc8b24546d63316533'
>>> branch_id = self.repo.get(branch_head_hex).id
>>> merge_result = self.repo.merge(branch_id)The MergeResult object
Represents the result of a merge and contains these fields:
- is_uptodate: bool, if there wasn't any merge because the repo was already up to date
- is_fastforward: bool, whether the merge was fastforward or not
- fastforward_id: Oid, in the case it was a fastforward, this is the forwarded id.
