How do I merge branches in VSCode?

To merge branches in VSCode, first switch to the branch you want to merge into. Then, open the Source Control panel, select the branch you want to merge from, and click on the '...' menu to find the 'Merge Branch' option.

What if there are conflicts during the merge?

If there are conflicts, VSCode will highlight the files with conflicts. You can open those files, review the changes, and manually resolve the conflicts. After resolving, mark the conflicts as resolved in the Source Control panel.

Can I use the command line for merging as well?

Yes, you can use the command line. Simply use the command git merge <branch-name> after checking out the branch you want to merge into.

Is there a way to undo a merge if I make a mistake?

Absolutely! You can use git merge --abort to cancel the merge if you haven't committed yet. If you've already committed, you can use git reset --hard HEAD~1 to revert to the previous state.
