It is a very often need to checkout a branch and them merge there the
branch that was before the checkout. Moreover after this is very often
needed to push.

So please add the flags to `checkout`:

1. to merge the old branch immediately after checkout

2. to push after checkout

I repeatedly write:

git checkout stable && git merge main && git push && git checkout main

Why not make a shell script to do this?

Sounds like a very sensible suggestion.  "merging and then pushing
immediately after" without any validation step in between is not for
everybody and being able to implement such a custom workflow is why
we have these individual steps as discrete commands.

Thanks.
