How to update my working Git branch from another branch (develop) ?

Question

I made a new branch for my code like a month ago, I created feature1 branch from develop branch.

⇒  git branch    develop * feature1 

I've been working on feature1 for a month now and a lot of the changes pushed to develop branch, How can I update my current branch feature1 with the latest commits at develop one?

I don't want to checkout master and merge my feature1 branch. Neither I want to use git cherry-pick to manually move commits from develop to feature1.

Any help ?

Answer 1

You just merge develop to feature1:

git checkout feature1 git merge develop 

There is no need to involve another branch such as master.
