MergePullRequestByFastForward, which merges the source destination branch of a pull request into the specified destination branch for that pull request using the fast-forward merge option.
MergePullRequestBySquash, which merges the source destination branch of a pull request into the specified destination branch for that pull request using the squash merge option.

For information about how to use CodeCommit, see the CodeCommit User Guide.
To install this package, use the CLI of your favorite package manager:
npm install @aws-sdk/client-codecommityarn add @aws-sdk/client-codecommitpnpm add @aws-sdk/client-codecommitThe AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands.
To send a request, you only need to import the CodeCommitClient and
the commands you need, for example ListRepositoriesCommand:
// ES5 example
const { CodeCommitClient, ListRepositoriesCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-codecommit");
// ES6+ example
import { CodeCommitClient, ListRepositoriesCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-codecommit";
To send a request:
send operation on the client, providing the command object as input.const client = new CodeCommitClient({ region: "REGION" });
const params = { /** input parameters */ };
const command = new ListRepositoriesCommand(params);
We recommend using the await operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows:
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
} finally {
// finally.
}
You can also use Promise chaining.
client
.send(command)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
})
.finally(() => {
// finally.
});
The aggregated client class is exported from the same package, but without the "Client" suffix.
CodeCommit extends CodeCommitClient and additionally supports all operations, waiters, and paginators as methods.
This style may be familiar to you from the AWS SDK for JavaScript v2.
If you are bundling the AWS SDK, we recommend using only the bare-bones client (CodeCommitClient).
More details are in the blog post on
modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript.
import { CodeCommit } from "@aws-sdk/client-codecommit";
const client = new CodeCommit({ region: "REGION" });
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.listRepositories(params);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
}
// Promises.
client
.listRepositories(params)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
});
// callbacks (not recommended).
client.listRepositories(params, (err, data) => {
// process err and data.
});
When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information, as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$metadata;
console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId });
/**
* The keys within exceptions are also parsed.
* You can access them by specifying exception names:
* if (error.name === 'SomeServiceException') {
* const value = error.specialKeyInException;
* }
*/
}

NodeGit is a native Node.js library that provides Git bindings. It allows you to perform Git operations such as cloning repositories, creating branches, and making commits. Unlike @aws-sdk/client-codecommit, which is specific to AWS CodeCommit, NodeGit can be used with any Git repository.
Simple-git is a lightweight interface for running Git commands in any Node.js application. It provides a simple API to perform Git operations like cloning, committing, and pushing changes. Similar to NodeGit, it is not specific to AWS CodeCommit and can be used with any Git repository.
Isomorphic-git is a pure JavaScript implementation of Git that works in both Node.js and browser environments. It provides a wide range of Git functionalities, including cloning, committing, and pushing changes. Unlike @aws-sdk/client-codecommit, it is not tied to any specific Git hosting service.
