The best developer on the team, Radia, is assigned the task, and she whips up the solution after just a few minutes and informs the team lead.

This post is part of a 5-post series on using Git. Hands-on Git Tasks - Part #1 of 5 | First Git Commit Hands-on Git Taks - Part #2 of 5 | Checking Git Objects Hands-on Git Tasks - Part #3 of 5 | Navigating Project Branches Hands-on Git Tasks - Part #4 of 5 | Using Remote Repository Hands-On Git Tasks - Part #5 of 5 | Merging Follow these steps for an example of how to merge code from a 'feature' branch into the 'main' branch. Did glance over branching in an earlier tutorial, but did not cover the merging of branches. 01. Go to the local-repo folder 02. check branches: git branch 03. create a new branch: git branch feature 04. check branches again: git branch 05. checkout the feature branch 06. create, add and commit a new file in 'switching' branch: switching.txt ls echo "circuit, packet, message" > switching.txt git add switching.txt git commit -m "Added switching feature" ls 07. get-back to the '
