Fwd: Query on GIT merge and conflicts

[Vijay Sundar V <dops.vijayv@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Team,

I've query for which we have no solutions from Stackoverflow. Or we
couldn't find one. Would be great if you have one or can provide
suggestions with.

I need to merge a particular branch from one project to a different
branch in another currently running project . For which I am following
below steps

In Source Repo-A: v23-branch, I created a local temp branch and moved
all the contents to a folder and made a local commit. Then In Target
Repo-B, I added the local git path like given below. git remote add
tmpmerge <local url of Source Repo-A: v23-branch> Then did a git fetch
of tmpmerge to get the branch details of Source Repo-A. And while
doing a git merge tmpmerge/temp --allow-unrelated-histories, I get so
many merge conflicts as describe in the bottom.

Below is the tree structure I am expecting to achieve it

Source Repo-A: v23-branch
   module1
   module2
   pom.xml
   Dockerfile

Target Repo B: some-branch
   source Repo-A: v21-branch
   |-module1
   |-module2
   |-pom.xml
   |-Dockerfile
   Repo-B-Files1
   Repo-B-Files2
   Repo-B-Files3
   pom.xml
   Jenkinsfile
   Dockerfile

What I want to achieve is given below.

Target Repo B: some-branch
source Repo-A: v21-branch
|-source Repo-A: v23-branch
  |-module1
  |-module2
  |-pom.xml
  |-Dockerfile
|-module1
|-module2
|-pom.xml
|-Dockerfile
Repo-B-Files1
Repo-B-Files2
Repo-B-Files3
pom.xml
Jenkinsfile
Dockerfile

I want to merge source repo module to the destination module as
mentioned above structure because While merging contents as parent
directory overwrites some of my existing files available in the
current project like pom.xml , docker file etc. Instead of merging to
current project parent directory I want to write as sub directory with
all its log and history. But I'm facing CONFLICT(rename/delete),
CONFLICT(rename/rename) for module files... Thanks much in advance.

Thanks,

Vijay V
