stg-push
STG-PUSH(1) StGit Manual STG-PUSH(1)
NAME
stg-push - Push one or more patches onto the stack
SYNOPSIS
stg push [options] [<patch1>] [<patch2>] [<patch3>..<patch4>]
DESCRIPTION
Push one or more patches (defaulting to the first unapplied one) onto the stack. The push operation allows patch reordering by commuting
them with the three-way merge algorithm. If there are conflicts while pushing a patch, those conflicts are written to the work tree, and
the command halts. Conflicts raised during the push operation have to be fixed and the git add --update command run (alternatively, you may
undo the conflicting push with stg undo).
The command also notifies when the patch becomes empty (fully merged upstream) or is modified (three-way merged) by the push operation.
OPTIONS
-a, --all
Push all the unapplied patches.
-n NUMBER, --number NUMBER
Push the specified number of patches.
--reverse
Push the patches in reverse order.
--set-tree
Push the patches, but don't perform a merge. Instead, the resulting tree will be identical to the tree that the patch previously
created.
This can be useful when splitting a patch by first popping the patch and creating a new patch with some of the changes. Pushing the
original patch with --set-tree will avoid conflicts and only the remaining changes will be in the patch.
-k, --keep
Keep the local changes.
-m, --merged
Check for patches merged upstream.
