Git Quick reference (cheatsheet)
I use Git on a daily basis; however, I don’t use every command frequently so here is a quick list of git commands used infrequently. I guess this is meant to be a cheat sheet.
Immediately checkout a branch
This one is used on a daily basis.
I’m including it because when I learned git branches in a two step process (branch then checkout).
It’s a time wasting habit I had to break
git checkout -b branchName
Add All uncommited files
Go to the base director and add it like so:
git add .
Remove (stage) all deleted files
If you have a number of deleted files and you want them all committed, run this command:
git add -u
Remove branch
git branch -D branch_name
Remove branch from remote
This is really handy when your using Github or Gitlab.
git push origin --delete branch_name
List Remote Repositories
List remote repositories you have setup
git remote -v
