MergeBranchesBySquashCommand Input

Parameter
Type
Description
destinationCommitSpecifier
Required
string | undefined

The branch, tag, HEAD, or other fully qualified reference used to identify a commit (for example, a branch name or a full commit ID).

Throws

Name
Fault
Details
BranchDoesNotExistException
client

The specified branch does not exist.

client

A branch name is required, but was not specified.

CommitDoesNotExistException
client

The specified commit does not exist or no commit was specified, and the specified repository has no default branch.

CommitMessageLengthExceededException
client

The commit message is too long. Provide a shorter string.

CommitRequiredException
client

A commit was not specified.

ConcurrentReferenceUpdateException
client

The merge cannot be completed because the target branch has been modified. Another user might have modified the target branch while the merge was in progress. Wait a few minutes, and then try again.
