Did you know this about merge? #git #coding

Use merge to integrate changes onto your feature branch without publishing your changes. Even though most of us use git merge to integrate our changes onto shared branches, try using it in reverse for a safe alternative to rebase.

I always worry this will make my PR super messy (ie. include all my changes + all other changes on mainline).

How does GH know to only include "my" stuff when it comes time to create the PR?
