title: Promote Git branch to master
body: <p>I have a git (and Github) repo with a <code>master</code> branch, a <code>development</code> branch and several feature branches. Each of the feature branches have been branched off <code>development</code> and subsequently merged into <code>development</code>. </p>
  
  <p>I'd now like to "promote" <code>development</code> to <code>master</code>. I don't want to merge these two branches because conflicts may arise. Essentially, <code>development</code> is "production ready" and I'd like for <code>master</code> to reflect the current state of <code>development</code>. How can I do this?</p>
