Julia Evans' Git cheat sheet (programming.dev)

submitted 2 months ago by fool to c/programming

58 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Git cheat sheets are a dime-a-dozen but I think this one is awfully concise for its scope.

Visually covers branching (WITH the commands -- rebasing the current branch can be confusing for the unfamiliar)
Covers reflog
Literally almost identical to how I use git (most sheets are either Too Much or Too Little)

It can be nice when you successfully do a rebase (after resolving conflicts), but change your mind about the resolution and want to redo it.

Doesn't come up that much, but it's been handy once or twice, for me. It's also just nice security: no matter how I edit commits, I can always go back if I need to.
