I struggled with Git until I learned these 19 commands: 1 git add: It lets you add changes from working directory into staging area 2 git commit: It lets you save a snapshot of currently staged changes in local repository, with a message 3 git push: It lets you upload commited changes from local repository to a remote repository 4 git fetch: It lets you download changes from a remote repository, without applying them locally 5 git pull: It lets you fetch & then merge changes from a remote repository into local branch 6 git merge: It lets you combine changes from one branch into another 7 git diff: It lets you see changes not staged or commited yet 8 git diff HEAD: It lets you see changes between current working directory & latest commit 9 git status: It shows you current state of working directory & staging area 10 git branch: It lets you see all local branches 11 git checkout: It lets you create a branch or switch between branches 12 git log: It shows you commits on current branch with extra details 13 git stash: It lets you temporarily save uncommitted changes & apply them later 14 git rebase: It lets you apply commits from one branch to another 15 git reset: It lets you undo changes in working directory & move back to a specific commit 16 git revert: It lets you undo changes by creating a new commit 17 git cherry pick: It lets you apply commits from one branch to another 18 git bisect: It lets you narrow down bugs quickly 19 git init: It lets you create an empty repository Anything else you'd add to this list? 1 RR to help others learn git. 2 If you want to become a better engineer, @systemdesignone is your guy.
