git merge-base

Find a common ancestor of two commits. More information: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-merge-base.

  • Print the best common ancestor of two commits:

git merge-base {{commit_1}} {{commit_2}}

  • Print all best common ancestors of two commits:

git merge-base {{[-a|--all]}} {{commit_1}} {{commit_2}}

  • Check if a commit is an ancestor of a specific commit:

git merge-base --is-ancestor {{ancestor_commit}} {{commit}}
