When merging Git branches, it is sometimes desirable to combine the changes from one branch into another without preserving the commit history of the merged branch. Additionally, conflicts may arise during the merge process that need to be resolved using the “theirs” strategy, which means accepting the changes from the branch being merged in.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to perform such a merge:

Step 1: Perform the Merge with Squash

To merge the changes from one branch into another without preserving the commit history, you can use the --squash option with the git merge command. The --squash option condenses all the commits from the merged branch into a single commit in the target branch.

When working with the Android emulator, you might need to access the localhost running on your host computer from within the emulator. The default IP address to reach the host computer from the emulator is 10.0.2.2. In this article, we’ll explore how to access localhost on the Android emulator using this IP address.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding, ensure that you have the following:

When developing Android applications, it is often necessary to work with databases and persistence data. Android provides a powerful database management system called SQLite, which allows developers to store and retrieve structured data efficiently. In addition, Android applications may also use XML files to store configuration data or other types of persistent information.

To facilitate the development process and enable easy access to these databases and XML files, a plugin called CellObject SQLite & XML Reader is available for the Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE). This plugin enhances the capabilities of Eclipse by providing features for reading and manipulating SQLite databases and XML files directly within the IDE.
