radicle-heartwood-lfs/radicle-cli/examples/rad-merge-via-push.md

Let's start by creating two patches.

$ git checkout -b feature/1 -q
$ git commit --allow-empty -q -m "First change"
$ git push rad HEAD:refs/patches
✓ Patch f6c96cca58521d6dbb6cd4e6b7124342b9a86945 opened
To rad://z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji/z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi
 * [new reference]   HEAD -> refs/patches

$ git checkout -b feature/2 -q master
$ git commit --allow-empty -q -m "Second change"
$ git push rad HEAD:refs/patches
✓ Patch 3b8203713e2945a6c46b238e6a432bd2711d3ccf opened
To rad://z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji/z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi
 * [new reference]   HEAD -> refs/patches

This creates some remote tracking branches for us:

$ git branch -r
  rad/master
  rad/patches/3b8203713e2945a6c46b238e6a432bd2711d3ccf
  rad/patches/f6c96cca58521d6dbb6cd4e6b7124342b9a86945

And some remote refs:

$ rad inspect --refs
z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi
└── refs
    ├── cobs
    │   ├── xyz.radicle.id
    │   │   └── 2317f74de0494c489a233ca6f29f2b8bff6d4f15
    │   └── xyz.radicle.patch
    │       ├── 3b8203713e2945a6c46b238e6a432bd2711d3ccf
    │       └── f6c96cca58521d6dbb6cd4e6b7124342b9a86945
    ├── heads
    │   ├── master
    │   └── patches
    │       ├── 3b8203713e2945a6c46b238e6a432bd2711d3ccf
    │       └── f6c96cca58521d6dbb6cd4e6b7124342b9a86945
    └── rad
        ├── id
        └── sigrefs

Then let's merge the changes into master.

$ git checkout master
Switched to branch 'master'
$ git merge feature/1
$ git merge feature/2

When we push to rad/master, we automatically merge the patches:

$ git push rad master
✓ Patch 3b8203713e2945a6c46b238e6a432bd2711d3ccf merged
✓ Patch f6c96cca58521d6dbb6cd4e6b7124342b9a86945 merged
To rad://z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji/z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi
   f2de534..d6399c7  master -> master

$ rad patch --merged
╭─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮

We can verify that the remote tracking branches were also deleted:

$ git branch -r
  rad/master

And so were the remote branches:

$ rad inspect --refs
