FAQPage Schema
How do I automate a development branch merge into a base branch?▼

To merge a development branch, the process verifies that tests pass and identifies the base branch. It then presents structured options to directly execute the merge operation into the base branch.

What is the best way to create a pull request after finishing a feature branch?▼

Can I discard a feature branch and clean it up after development?▼

Yes, you can discard and clean up a feature branch after development by selecting the cleanup option. This allows you to entirely discard the branch instead of keeping it or pushing it as a pull request.

Do I need to pass tests before managing branch cleanup or pull requests?▼

Yes, tests must be passed before you can manage branch cleanup or pull requests. The workflow requires testing to be passed and base branch determination before presenting any merge, pull request, or cleanup options.
