gh-pr-merge - Man Page

Merge a pull request

Examples (TL;DR)

Synopsis

gh pr merge [<number> | <url> | <branch>] [flags]

Description

Merge a pull request on GitHub.

Without an argument, the pull request that belongs to the current branch is selected.

When targeting a branch that requires a merge queue, no merge strategy is required. If required checks have not yet passed, auto-merge will be enabled. If required checks have passed, the pull request will be added to the merge queue. To bypass a merge queue and merge directly, pass the --admin flag.

-A, --author-email <text>

Email text for merge commit author

--auto

Automatically merge only after necessary requirements are met

-b, --body <text>

Body text for the merge commit

-F, --body-file <file>

Read body text from file (use "-" to read from standard input)

-d,  --delete-branch

Delete the local and remote branch after merge

--disable-auto

Disable auto-merge for this pull request

--match-head-commit <SHA>

Commit SHA that the pull request head must match to allow merge

-m,  --merge

Merge the commits with the base branch

-r,  --rebase

Rebase the commits onto the base branch

-s,  --squash

Squash the commits into one commit and merge it into the base branch
