Hi, Currently in Iceberg to merge a branch into another, we need to checkout the branch into which we want to merge and then do the merge. Checking out a branch also updates the code in the image, which when needing to perform automatic releases on a branch can cause issues. Is there already a way in Iceberg to switch to a branch (for example `release`) and then merge another branch (for example `master`) into it without updating any code in the image? The use-case is that the user is on the `master` branch and needs to merge `master` into `release` without changing any code in the image. I found LGitRepository>>#merge:, but it seems not to be used anywhere in the image. Another way would be to implement something like the method below. This: - calculates what changes need to be merged - always takes what is on the left branch (in this case what is on master overrides what is on release) - does not call loadChangesInWorkingCopy: to update the working copy as the code is already in the image - refreshes the dirty packages in case there are changes between what is on the image and what is on disk ``` IceMerge>>#executeWithAcceptingLeftOnConflictAndWithoutImageUpdate | commitToAdvance | mergeCommit validateCanMerge. self isAlreadyMerged ifTrue: [ ^ self ]. self calculateChanges. self conflictsDo: [ :operation | operation selectLeft. ]. commitToAdvance := self updateHead. "Do not update the working copy" "repository workingCopy loadChangesInWorkingCopy: self changesToWorkingCopyTree." repository workingCopy refreshDirtyPackages. ^ commitToAdvance ``` Could something like the above solution work? Or are there other issues to take into account? Cheers, Andrei
