Sync Dev with Master

User
Can you please sync the development branch with the master branch and fix the merge issues?
Assistant
To sync your **development** branch with the **master** branch and resolve merge conflicts, you can follow these steps:

### 1. **Switch to the Development Branch**

git checkout development

### 2. **Pull Latest Changes from Master**

git pull origin master

This command attempts to merge changes from the **master** branch into your **development** branch. If there are no conflicts, the process will complete automatically. If there are conflicts, Git will notify you.

### 3. **Resolve Merge Conflicts**
– Git will pause and show which files have conflicts. Open those files, and look for conflict markers like this:

<<<<<<< HEAD
  (Your changes in the development branch)
  =======
  (Changes from the master branch)
  >>>>>>> master

– Manually edit the file to keep the desired changes and remove the conflict markers.

### 4. **Mark Conflicts as Resolved**
After resolving conflicts in all affected files, run:

git add <file>

Repeat this for each file with conflicts, or use:

git add .

### 5. **Complete the Merge**
Once all conflicts are resolved:

git commit

Git will automatically create a merge commit message, but you can edit it if needed.

### 6. **Push the Updated Development Branch**
Finally, push the updated **development** branch to the remote repository:

git push origin development
