41. How to push code to existing remote branch in Github?


Push your branch to the remote repository:
git push -u origin feature_branch_name


42. How do I force git pull to overwrite the local file changes?


Note: If you have local unpushed commits this will remove them from your branch!

First, run a fetch to update all origin/<branch> refs to latest:(downloads the latest from remote without trying to merge or rebase anything)

git fetch --all


Backup your current branch:

git branch backup-master


Then, you have two options:

git reset --hard origin/master

OR If you are on some other branch:

git reset --hard origin/<branch_name>


//git reset resets the master branch to what you just fetched. 

//The --hard option changes all the files in your working tree to match the files in origin/master


WHY AUTOMATION QA SHOULD LEARN GIT?


Git is a powerful version control system that allows developers to manage changes to their codebase. Although Git was originally designed for software development, it has become an essential tool for automation testing as well. Here are some reasons why learning Git is important for automation testing:

  1. Version control: Git helps you keep track of changes to your test code over time. With Git, you can create a repository for your tests, and every time you make changes to your test code, you can commit those changes to the repository. This allows you to revert to an earlier version of your test code if necessary.

  2. Collaboration: Git allows multiple people to work on the same codebase simultaneously. This is useful for automation testing, where multiple testers may need to work on the same set of tests. With Git, testers can work on their own branch of the codebase and merge their changes into the main codebase when they're ready.

  3. Continuous integration: Git integrates well with continuous integration (CI) tools like Jenkins, Travis CI, and CircleCI. These tools allow you to automatically build, test, and deploy your code every time you make changes to the codebase. With Git, you can configure your CI tool to trigger builds and tests whenever changes are pushed to the repository.

  4. Code review: Git allows you to create pull requests, which are requests for other team members to review your code changes. This is a useful feature for automation testing, where it's important to ensure that your tests are of high quality and cover the necessary functionality. Pull requests allow other testers to review your tests and suggest improvements or catch errors.

Overall, Git is an essential tool for automation testing because it allows you to manage changes to your test code, collaborate with other testers, integrate with CI tools, and review code changes. Learning Git will make you a more efficient and effective automation tester.

44. How to undo a git merge with conflicts?


The solution is quite dependent on the version of GIT you are using.


Latest Git Version:

git merge --abort


This attempts to reset your working copy to whatever state it was in before the merge. 


Prior to version 1.7.4:

git reset --merge


This is older syntax but does the same as the above.


Prior to version 1.6.2:

git reset --hard


 How to integrate Maven project with Jenkins?


ANS:  Maven & Jenkins Integration


45. What does cherry-picking a commit with GIT means?


Ans:  Let's Consider the following scenario. You have two branches.

a) release2 - This branch is going to your customer, but there are still some bugs to be fixed.

b) master - Classic master branch, where you can for example add functionality for release2.


NOW: You fix something in release2. Of course you need this fix also in master. And that is a typical use-case for cherry picking. So cherry pick in this scenario means that you take a commit from release2 branch and include it into the master branch.

47. How to delete a branch from local and remote?


To delete a local branch you can use below command

git branch -d the_local_branch

To remove a remote branch: be careful while doing this as it will delete a remote branch!

git push origin :the_remote_branch

or use the new syntax (v1.7.0)


git push origin --delete the_remote_branch


48. How to recover the dropped stash in GIT?


Ans: If you know the hash of the stash commit you have dropped, you can apply it as a stash:

git stash apply $stash_hash

for automation project?

50. What is the meaning of git conflict markers? VERY VERY IMP


Ans: Let's assume that after we pulled from remote branch, we got conflict, when we open the file it looks something like below:

<<<<<<< HEAD:file.txt

Hello world

=======

Adios Amigos

>>>>>>> 77976da35a11db46586:file.txt

A. The lines between the lines beginning <<<<<<< and  ======here:


<<<<<<< HEAD:file.txt

Hello world

=======

This above is what we already had locally - you can tell because HEAD points to your current branch or commit. 

B. The lines between the beginning ======= and >>>>>>>:

=======

Adios Amigos

>>>>>>> 99976da35a22db46586:file.txt

This is what was introduced by the other (pulled) commit, in this case 99976da35a22

39. How to track the remote branches in GIT?


Assuming there is a remote repository that you cloned your local repository from and also assuming that there is a branch named 'remote_branch' on that remote repository, here is how to track it locally:


# list remote branches

git branch -r


# start tracking one remote branch

git branch --track remote_branch origin/remote_branch
