In order to sync only the package.json changes from the main branch to the feature branch without affecting any other code, you can follow these steps:
- Make sure you have committed any changes you made in the
featurebranch. - Checkout to the
featurebranch:
git checkout feature
- Fetch the latest updates of the
mainbranch:
git fetch origin main
- Cherry-pick the specific commit that has the
package.jsonchanges. You will need the commit hash. Replace[commit-hash]with the actual commit hash:
git cherry-pick [commit-hash]
Now, the specific package.json changes will be applied to your feature branch without affecting any other code. If there are any conflicts, resolve them manually and then commit the changes.
Alternatively, if you want to just copy the latest package.json from the main branch without referencing a specific commit, you can use the following command:
git checkout origin/main -- package.json
This will bring the package.json from the main branch directly into your feature branch. After this, you can commit the changes.
