Git workflow for newcomers

You generally do NOT need to rebase your pull requests unless there are merge conflicts with the main. When Github complaining that "Can’t automatically merge" on your pull request, you'll be asked to rebase your pull request on top of the latest main branch, using the following commands:

  • First rebasing to the most recent main:

      git remote add upstream https://github.com/alibaba/GraphScope.git
  git fetch upstream
  git rebase upstream/main

  • Then git may show you some conflicts when it cannot merge, say conflict.cpp, you need

    • Manually modify the file to resolve the conflicts

    • After resolved, mark it as resolved by

      git add conflict.cpp

  • Then you can continue rebasing by

      git rebase --continue

  • Finally push to your fork, then the pull request will be got updated:

      git push --force
