How can I keep my branch up to date with master with git?
If you just want the bug fix to be integrated into the branch, git cherry-pick
the relevant commit(s).
If your branch is local only and hasn't been pushed to the server, use
git rebase master
Otherwise, use
git merge master
Assuming you're fine with taking all of the changes in master, what you want is:
git checkout <my branch>
to switch the working tree to your branch; then:
git merge master
to merge all the changes in master with yours.
You can use the cherry-pick to get the particular bug fix commit(s)
$ git checkout branch
$ git cherry-pick bugfix
