Question

what git function allows me to approve/deny each change a commit will make?

I remember seeing this when I first started gitting, but can’t seem to find it now…

I know I’ve done it once, where it gave a list of single letters, and each letter was a different aprove/deny/skip function. Does anyone know what I am talking about?

Answer 1

Not tested, but you can start with git merge --no-commit, then you ought to be able to use combinations of git add -p, git reset, git checkout, etc. to accomplish what you want. I don’t think there’s a “simple” or “one command” way to do it, though.
