# NAME
git-annex merge branch * merge: When run with a branch parameter, merges from that branch. This is especially useful when using an adjusted branch, because it applies the same adjustment to the branch before merging it.

When run without any parameters, this performs the same merging (and merge
conflict resolution) that is done by the sync command, but without pushing
or pulling any data.
When a branch to merge is specified, this merges it, using the same merge
conflict resolution as the sync command. This is especially useful on
an adjusted branch, because it applies the same adjustment to the
branch before merging it.

configuration to disable automatic merge conflict resolution * Added annex.resolvemerge configuration, which can be set to false to disable the usual automatic merge conflict resolution done by git-annex sync and the assistant. * sync: Added --no-resolvemerge option. Note that disabling merge conflict resolution is probably not a good idea in a direct mode repo or adjusted branch. Since updates to both are done outside the usual work tree, if it fails the tree is not left in a conflicted state, and it would be hard to manually resolve the conflict. Still, made annex.resolvemerge be supported in those cases for consistency. This commit was sponsored by Riku Voipio.

When annex.resolvemerge is set to false, merge conflict resolution
will not be done.
split out common options to its own page and mention it on each subcommand page Sometimes users would get confused because an option they were looking for was not mentioned on a subcommand's man page, and they had not noticed that the main git-annex man page had a list of common options. This change lets each subcommand mention the common options, similarly to how the matching options are handled. This commit was sponsored by Svenne Krap on Patreon.

# SEE ALSO
[[git-annex]](1)
expand manpages cross-references significantly i found that most man pages only had references to the main git-annex manpage, which i stillfind pretty huge and hard to navigate through. i tried to sift through all the man pages and add cross-references between relevant pages. my general rule of thumb is that links should be both ways unless one of the pages is a more general page that would become ridiculously huge if all backlinks would be added (git-annex-preferred-content comes to mind). i have also make the links one per line as this is how it was done in the metadata pages so far. i did everything but the plumbing, utility and test commands, although some of those are linked from the other commands so cross-links were added there as well.
