This repository contains the starter files for the 'Branching and Merging' exercise.
As part of this exercise you will:
- Review the contents of a conversation that has been distributed across multiple branches.
- Reassemble the conversation by merging the branch contents back into
master
. - Address merge conflicts and commit the result.
Please review the accompanying class materials for additional details.
The master
branch of this repository contains a file named CONVERSATION.md
, which is currently empty. The contents of the file have been spread across 6 branches, each of which contains a single commit that is not present on any other branch. Your job is to reassemble the conversation on the master
. In order to do this you must:
- Fork this repository to your own account.
- Review the other branches and their contents.
- Identify the conversation order.
- Merge the contents of each branch back into the
master
branch. - Address any merge conflicts that arise.
When you're done you should have a CONVERSATION.md
file that contains the full 6 part conversation in the correct order. Your master branch should also contain the commits from the other branches (note: this will happen naturally as a result of the merge process). You must not modify the existing commits.
Make sure to review the contents of CONVERSATION.md
and the Git history before submitting the exercise.
- Make sure to review the contents of each branch before starting to merge.
- The portions of the conversation are numbered.
