get-merge-options¶

Description¶

Returns information about the merge options available for merging two specified branches. For details about why a merge option is not available, use GetMergeConflicts or DescribeMergeConflicts.

Synopsis¶

  get-merge-options
--repository-name <value>
--source-commit-specifier <value>
--destination-commit-specifier <value>
[--conflict-detail-level <value>]
[--conflict-resolution-strategy <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--repository-name (string)

The name of the repository that contains the commits about which you want to get merge options.

--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).

--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).

--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

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To get information about the merge options available for merging two specified branches

The following get-merge-options example determines the merge options available for merging a source branch named bugfix-bug1234 with a destination branch named main in a repository named MyDemoRepo.

aws codecommit get-merge-options \
    --source-commit-specifier bugfix-bug1234 \
    --destination-commit-specifier main \
    --repository-name MyDemoRepo

Output:

{
    "mergeOptions": [
        "FAST_FORWARD_MERGE",
        "SQUASH_MERGE",
        "THREE_WAY_MERGE"
    ],
    "sourceCommitId": "18059494EXAMPLE",
    "destinationCommitId": "ffd3311dEXAMPLE",
    "baseCommitId": "ffd3311dEXAMPLE"
}

For more information, see Resolve Conflicts in a Pull Request in the AWS CodeCommit User Guide.

Output¶

(string)

sourceCommitId -> (string)

The commit ID of the source commit specifier that was used in the merge evaluation.

destinationCommitId -> (string)
