Avilable strategies

MergeWithoutRebase

git.checkout(master)
git.fetch(upstream)
git.reset_hard("#{upstream}/#{master}")

pull_requests.each do |pull_request|
  git.remote_add("#{pull_request.remote} #{pull_request.remote_url}")
  git.fetch(pull_request.remote)
  git.merge_no_ff("#{pull_request.remote}/#{pull_request.branch}")
end

MergeWithRebase

git.checkout(master)
git.fetch(upstream)
git.reset_hard("#{upstream}/#{master}")

pull_requests.each do |pull_request|
  git.remote_add("#{pull_request.remote} #{pull_request.remote_url}")
  git.fetch(pull_request.remote)
  git.checkout(pull_request.branch)
  git.rebase(master)
  git.checkout(master)
  git.merge_no_ff(pull_request.branch)
end

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
