git-merge-into - Merge one branch into another

       Written by spacewander <spacewanderlzx@gmail.com>

       Merge  one  branch  into  another,  and keep yourself on current branch. If src branch not given, it will
       merge current one to dest.

       Assume the following history exists and the current branch is src:

                            A---B---C src(current)
                           /
                      D---E---F---G dest

       After running gitmerge-intodest, it will look like this:

                           A---B---C src(current)
                           /         \
                      D---E---F---G---H dest

       The  H  commit  will record the merge result, just like what gitmerge does. And src is still the current
       branch.

       The default implementation of merge-into use gitcheckout and gitmerge, which may cause temporary change
       in the working tree. If you make sure your branch can be merged  fast-forward,  add  --ff-only  to  avoid
       files change.

       <src>

       The name of the branch will be merged into. If this not given, use current branch as default.

       <dest>

       The name of the branch to merge into.

       --ff-only

       Refuse to merge and exit with a non-zero status unless the current HEAD  is  already  up-to-date  or  the
       merge can be resolved as a fast-forward.
