`git flow release finish` non-interactively

Question

How I can use git flow release finish in a manner that doesn\'t ask for merge commit messages? The -m flag doesn\'t provide this, as I expected.

Answer 1

You can pass the -m flag to specify a tag message on the command line.

It is still possible for the merges to have conflicts, but the tag operation will not try to open an editor for the tag message.

git flow release finish -m "my awesome release" 1.2.3
