git-merge(1)
============
NAME
----
git-merge - Grand Unified Merge Driver
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-merge' [-n] [--no-commit] [-s <strategy>]... <msg> <head> <remote> <remote>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This is the top-level user interface to the merge machinery
which drives multiple merge strategy scripts.
OPTIONS
-------
include::merge-options.txt[]
<msg>::
The commit message to be used for the merge commit (in case
it is created). The `git-fmt-merge-msg` script can be used
to give a good default for automated `git-merge` invocations.
<head>::
our branch head commit.
<remote>::
other branch head merged into our branch. You need at
least one <remote>. Specifying more than one <remote>
obviously means you are trying an Octopus.
