Alice: merging and log format

Our preferred writer is back, and having read Bob’s message she decides to merge his work.

Lab

First, she jumps into her workspace

cd
cd alice/book

And checks that everything is just like she left it:

git status
ls

But Alice can confirm there is a new branch in her repo

git branch

So this should be an easy one: Alice merges the changes from Bob into her main branch

git merge wip-chapter-02

Ok, there it is the promised new chapter

ls

Alice has her preferred way to take a quick look at the repo history, and this looks like a good moment to put it in play. She uses the `pretty` option to set a particular format for the log messages

git log \
  --pretty=██████:"%h%x09%Cgreen%an%Creset%x09%s (%ah) %Cred%d%Creset" \
  --graph

Solution

git log \
  --pretty=format:"%h%x09%Cgreen%an%Creset%x09%s (%ah) %Cred%d%Creset" \
  --graph

Alice doesn’t want to get her repo polluted with many branches created by Bob, so she deletes the new one

git branch -d wip-chapter-02
git branch

Well, time to drink some tea. Alice exits her repo

cd ../../
