# NAME
git-annex merge - merge changes from remotes
# SYNOPSIS
git annex merge [branch]
# DESCRIPTION
When run without any parameters, this performs the same merging (and merge
conflict resolution) that is done by the `git-annex pull` and `git-annex sync`
commands, but without uploading or downloading any data.
When a branch to merge is specified, this merges it into the current branch,
using the same merge conflict resolution as the `git-annex pull` command.
This is especially useful on an adjusted branch, because it applies the same
adjustment to the branch before merging it.
When annex.resolvemerge is set to false, merge conflict resolution
will not be done.
# OPTIONS
* `--allow-unrelated-histories`, `--no-allow-unrelated-histories`
Passed on to `git merge`, to control whether or not to merge
histories that do not share a common ancestor.
* `--json`
Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use
git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
* `--json-error-messages`
Messages that would normally be output to standard error are included in
the JSON instead.
* Also, the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used.
