Your company uses Azure DevOps to manage the build and release processes for applications.

You usea Git repository for applications source control.

You need to implement a pull request strategy that reduces the history volume in the master branch.

Solution: You implement a pull request strategy that uses a three-way merge.

Does this meet the goal?

BNo

Suggested Answer: B

Instead use fast-forward merge.

Note:

No fast-forward merge - This option merges the commit history of the source branch when the pull request closes and creates a merge commit in the target branch.

I believe a three-way merge is standard, but I can't recall if it actually helps with the history volume issue.

I feel like using a squash merge could be more effective for keeping the master branch clean, but I'm not entirely confident.

I think we discussed similar questions in practice, and I recall that a three-way merge might not be the best option for reducing history.

This seems straightforward. A three-way merge pull request strategy should help reduce the history volume in the master branch, so I'll select that option.

I'm a bit confused on this one. The question mentions a unique solution, but I'm not sure if the three-way merge is the right approach. I'll need to double-check the details and make sure I understand the requirements fully.

I think I've got this one. Implementing a pull request strategy that uses a three-way merge should meet the goal of reducing the history volume in the master branch. I'll go with that.

Hmm, this one seems tricky. I'll need to think carefully about the pull request strategy and how it impacts the history volume in the master branch.
