Rebasing a local branch onto a remote branch
· 8 min read
Rebasing a local branch onto a remote branch is a common workflow for keeping your feature branch up-to-date with the main development branch (like main
or master
) and maintaining a clean, linear commit history.
The process involves a few key steps: fetching the latest changes, checking out your local branch, performing the rebase, handling conflicts, and then force-pushing your changes if the branch was already shared.
