I am trying to see all of the merges into master in the remote repository via my command line. I am trying the command

git log --merges --first-parent master --oneline

But that isn't getting everything it seems. It only is getting things that happend locally. I have tried git fetch --all but that didn't seem to do anything.

When you fetch from a remote, your repo updates its tracking refs, so origin's master branch shows up locally as refs/remotes/origin/master, which you can usually refer to just as origin/master.

git log --oneline --merges --first-parent origin/master

You combine any local work with upstream work however you like, the default is to merge, for carrying a patch series rebase is very popular with good reason. git pull is the convenience command for fetching and then doing as usual with what that got you.

You can use below command for it.

git branch --merged master
