Merging a Merge request from command line in gitlab












1















I'm trying to find a way to merge a merge request in gitlab from command line.
Does anyone know how this can be achieved instead of merging the same from the GUI interface.



Any pointers are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

    Checkout merge requests locally as branches and merge them.

  • Interesting workaround, but does that mean the new push of the local branch after the merge request is checked out would create a new remote branch and merge it rather than the original merge request? I'm looking to simply merge the original merge request present on gitlab.

    Then you need to use an API command line wrapper like git-spindel, gitlab, gitlab-cli, cli-gitlab.

  • Thanks phd, That's exactly what I was trying to avoid, installing something additional, this question was to find if there was a way to do it without any additions and if there was an existing gitlab ABI that could be used to perform this.

You can merge it like any other branch:



git checkout target-branch
git merge feature-branch
git push


The Gitlab UI will then show the merge request as merged.
