This is still **WIP**. Using this tool will change your local master branch
and under certain circumstances some of your feature branches too!

Use at your own risk!

# OctoMerge

`octo-merge` is a simple command line tool to merge GitHub pull requests using different strategies.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'octo-merge'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install octo-merge

## Setup / Configure

If you do not want to provide your GitHub login credentials every time you
call `octo-merge` you can easily set these in your `~/.octo-merge.yml`.

Feel free to use the included setup task:

```
octo-merge --setup
```

## Examples

```
# Within your shell

octo-merge \
--repo=rails/rails \
--dir=~/Dev/Rails/rails \
--pull_requests=23,42 \
--login=Deradon \
--password= \
--strategy=MergeWithRebase
```

* You can find your API token [here](https://github.com/settings/tokens)

## Available Strategies

* NOTE: All strategies are using read-only branches for a specific pull requests.
This way we avoid adding lot of remotes.

### MergeWithoutRebase

```
# Reset master
git checkout master
git fetch upstream
git reset --hard upstream/master

# For each pull request
git fetch upstream pull/23/head:pull/23 --force"
git merge --no-ff pull/23
git branch -D pull/23
```

### MergeWithRebase

```
# Reset master
git checkout master
git fetch upstream
git reset --hard upstream/master

# For each pull request
git fetch upstream pull/23/head:pull/23 --force"
git checkout pull/23
git rebase master

git checkout master
git merge --no-ff pull/23

git branch -D pull/23
```

### Rebase

```
# Reset master
git checkout master
git fetch upstream
git reset --hard upstream/master

# For each pull request
git fetch upstream pull/23/head:pull/23 --force"
git checkout pull/23
git rebase master

git checkout master
git rebase pull/23

git branch -D pull/23
```

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
