Creating a branch just before merge code example

Example 1: git new branch

$ git checkout -b [your_branch_name]
# Switched to a new branch [your_branch_name]

# This is shorthand for:
$ git branch [your_branch_name]
$ git checkout [your_branch_name]

Example 2: merging branches in git

//Make sure you are in your branch. Develop is a a branch in this case

git checkout master
Switched to branch 'master'

git pull
To pull changes of team members to your master

git checkout develop
git merge master
Resolve Conflicts in develop

git checkout master
git merge develop
To merge your final changes along with other changes to your master

git pull
If there were any additional changes made meanwhile

git push
To push the final master to the master repository

git checkout develop
//Move to branch again to work
