fastForwardDefaultBranch

fastForwardDefaultBranch(dir, branch): Promise<PullResult>

Defined in: src/pull.ts:82

Fast-forward the local default-branch checkout in dir to origin/<branch>. Fails closed and NEVER throws — any error maps to { ok:false }:

• HEAD not on branch → wrong_branch (normal for a feature checkout)
• working tree dirty → dirty
• merge --ff-only non-zero → diverged
• any other throw/timeout → error Every git step is async so neither the network fetch nor a slow local status/merge on a large repo can block the single-threaded event loop.

Parameters

dir

string

branch

string

Returns

Promise<PullResult>
