describe-merge-conflicts¶

Description¶

Returns information about one or more merge conflicts in the attempted merge of two commit specifiers using the squash or three-way merge strategy. If the merge option for the attempted merge is specified as FAST_FORWARD_MERGE, an exception is thrown.

Synopsis¶

  describe-merge-conflicts
--repository-name <value>
--destination-commit-specifier <value>
--source-commit-specifier <value>
--merge-option <value>
[--max-merge-hunks <value>]
--file-path <value>
[--conflict-detail-level <value>]
[--conflict-resolution-strategy <value>]
[--next-token <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--repository-name (string)

The name of the repository where you want to get information about a merge conflict.

--destination-commit-specifier (string)

The branch, tag, HEAD, or other fully qualified reference used to identify a commit (for example, a branch name or a full commit ID).

--source-commit-specifier (string)

The branch, tag, HEAD, or other fully qualified reference used to identify a commit (for example, a branch name or a full commit ID).

--merge-option (string)

The merge option or strategy you want to use to merge the code.

Possible values:

FAST_FORWARD_MERGE

SQUASH_MERGE

THREE_WAY_MERGE

--max-merge-hunks (integer)

The maximum number of merge hunks to include in the output.

--file-path (string)

The path of the target files used to describe the conflicts.

--conflict-detail-level (string)

The level of conflict detail to use. If unspecified, the default FILE_LEVEL is used, which returns a not-mergeable result if the same file has differences in both branches. If LINE_LEVEL is specified, a conflict is considered not mergeable if the same file in both branches has differences on the same line.

Possible values:

FILE_LEVEL

LINE_LEVEL

--conflict-resolution-strategy (string)

Specifies which branch to use when resolving conflicts, or whether to attempt automatically merging two versions of a file. The default is NONE, which requires any conflicts to be resolved manually before the merge operation is successful.

Possible values:

NONE

ACCEPT_SOURCE

ACCEPT_DESTINATION

AUTOMERGE

--next-token (string)

An enumeration token that, when provided in a request, returns the next batch of the results.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

To get detailed information about merge conflicts

The following describe-merge-conflicts example determines the merge conflicts for a file named readme.md in the specified source branch and destination branch using the THREE_WAY_MERGE strategy.

aws codecommit describe-merge-conflicts \
    --source-commit-specifier feature-randomizationfeature \
    --destination-commit-specifier main \
    --merge-option THREE_WAY_MERGE \
    --file-path readme.md \
    --repository-name MyDemoRepo

Output:
