Merge (no branch) into master

dave@dave-dev:/media/dev/belgravia$ git branch
* (no branch)
  master

I'm not sure how this happened, but is there a way I can merge no-branch into the master. I'm not sure how I can merge two branches when one of them is not a branch. The commits in no-branch seem to be 开发者_高级运维loose. I'm afraid that checkout master will cause data loss.

Use git show to get the SHA1 commit ID of the current HEAD. With that information, you can't lose those commits.

Then, switch to master and:

git merge abc123

where abc123 is the SHA1 from the first step.

Maybe you can commit it on current branch(no-branch)

Then you have to do:

git reflog

After that you can get the id of this commit like 1d84d08

do:

git checkout master 
git merge 1d84d08

The reason you have (no branch) is you have done:

git checkout REMOTE_BRANCH_NAME

• In order for you to work locally on that branch you have to do: git checkout -b local_branch_new_name
• now do a: git branch - a
• you will see:

local_branch_new_name

  master

• From here you can merge a branch into master the usual way. switch to master and do:

  git merge local_branch_new_name
