Howto merge a branch

Howto merge a branch#

We assume you have forked TUWien-ASC/ASC-bla into your personal repo on github, like JSchoeberl/bla. Then you have cloned this one to your computer.

First, we have to add the original git repo as a remote repo. Go to REMOTE, add it using the + and name it as you like (I have called it dasOriginal).

Then go to the git controls and select branch -> merge branch. Choose the branch dasOriginal - expr, it will merge the changes from there into your branch.

My git-graph view looks now like

Then, you synchonize with your upstream repo.
