git - What to do with commit made in a detached head

Question

Using git I made something like this

git clone
git checkout {a rev number tree rev before} (here I started to be in a detached head state)
//hacking
git commit
//hacking
git commit
(some commit where made on origin/master)
git pull (which does complete because there was some error due to the fact that I'm no more on master)

Because it said to me that I can still commit when in a detached head state, I did so. But now I want to like merge my detached head branch and my local master branch, and then push my bunch of changes to origin/master.

So my question is how could I merge the master branch with my actual state (detached head)

Answer 1

Create a branch where you are, then switch to master and merge it:

git branch my-temporary-work
git checkout master
git merge my-temporary-work
