A: After git fetch, how to fast forward my branch? The answer by hkotsubo is correct. But just in case you're being very specific about fast-forwarding, it's worth stressing that you can use `--ff-only` as an option on the merge to abort if it requires a merge commit. ```sh git merge --ff-only origin/branchname ``` Where is this useful? I hav... (more) |

A: How to establish a relationship between HTML elements (tags)? (i.e., how can one element refer to another one) I'm not sure how much this helps or inspires you, but there's an XML schema for the US Code and for bills and amendments to change it. See xml.house.gov and the GitHub repository for United States Legislative Markup. They may already have XSLT transformations to HTML for current-version and/or diff m... (more) |

Agreed

I'll give you that squashing is optional, but it's important if you make use of ReReRe, so that the pre-image and merge outcome are bound together. Otherwise, you have to do all those fixups again. (more) |

That I do not know. You should be able to make Python bindings for a Rust project with [`py03`](https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3), but I haven't done this, and I don't know whether streaming would work there... (more) |

I don't actually use `bat` very much, but I use [`delta`](https://github.com/dandavison/delta) for syntax-highlighting diff contents in the terminal pretty much every day. They use the same syntax highlighting library. (more) |

A: Can you have syntax highlighting for streaming text in Python? Does `bat` work for this, as well as for your other question? I see you have tagged your question as Python, but I'm not sure I understand how it's relevant. Sources: this issue comment and also that one. (more) |

I mostly use a local GUI for that now, but I did a lot of `rebase -i HEAD^^^` stuff in the past.

The three-argument `git rebase --onto` changed my life. I still have to look up how to do it every time, but moving an accidental _second_ feature branch back onto `main` has been transformational. (more) |

A: What is the general process for merging two git branches, reviewing edits on each branch? There are two major sections to this answer: the Git part and the conflict resolution part. It wasn't clear at first which one was intended by the question, but both are important for a full answer. Git workflow Workflow summary 1. Make a temporary branch in case things go badly. 2.

Not "the" answer, just a comment: I think some locales actually use a `'` as the digit separator (Switzerland? others?), whereas to my knowledge, none use an underscore. The other ones I know of (space, `,`, `.`) are already taken by other syntactic meaning. Also, some of them are different in differ... (more) |

Are you sure `HOME_DIRECTORY` is a string? It could be a class where the `/` operator is set up to do something cute with `__truediv__()`. If I had to guess, it's probably returning that same object type, but with the second operand appended to the path. (more) |

A: Syntax match any 2 spaces at end of line You could explicitly match the other whitespace, too, to see if that gets around an existing rule.[^default] Here are two ways to do that:[^magic] Match the other whitespace in another rule You could use a `\@=` lookahead to match all the whitespace before your special rule.
