Git

Description

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

Git System

=

Basic commands

Git clone

Clone repo located at <repo> onto local machine. Original repo can be located on the local filesystem or on a remote machine via HTTPS or SSH.

git clone

Git init

Initialize an existing directory as a Git repository

git init

Create empty Git repo in specified directory. Run with no arguments to initialize the current directory as a git repository.

$ git init <directory> =

Git status

List which files are staged, unstaged, and untracked.

$ git status

Git config --global name & email

Must be identifiable for credit when review version history.

$ git config --global user.name “[firstname lastname]”

$ git config --global user.email “[valid-email]”

Git add

Stage all changes in <directory> for the next commit. Replace <directory> with a <file> to change a specific file.

$ git add readme.md image.jpg

Git commit

Commit your staged content as a new commit snapshot

$ git commit -m "First Commit"

After doing this, you may fix the identity used for this commit with:

$ git commit --amend --reset-author

Git log

Show all commits in the current branchs history

$ git log

Graphs

The --graph option draws an ASCII graph representing the branch structure of the commit history. This is commonly used in conjunction with the --oneline and --decorate commands to make it easier to see which commit belongs to which branch:

$ git log --graph --oneline --decorate

git log

Tig

Tig allows you to browse changes in a Git repository and can additionally act as a pager for output of various Git commands. When used as a pager, it will display input from stdin and colorize it.

$ tig

When browsing repositories, Tig uses the underlying Git commands to present the user with various views, such as summarized commit log and showing the commit with the log message, diffstat, and the diff.

tig

Git diff

Show unstaged changes between your index and working directory.

$ git diff

SHARE & UPDATE

Retrieving updates from another repository and updating local repos

=================================

add a git URL as an alias

git remote add [alias] [url]

fetch down all the branches from that Git remote

git fetch [alias]

merge a remote branch into your current branch to bring it up to date

git merge [alias]/[branch]

Transmit local branch commits to the remote repository branch

git push [alias] [branch]

git pull

fetch and merge any commits from the tracking remote branch

BRANCH & MERGE

Isolating work in branches, changing context, and integrating changes

Remote Execution

git branch

list your branches. a * will appear next to the currently active branch

git branch [branch-name]

create a new branch at the current commit

git checkout

switch to another branch and check it out into your working directory

git checkout -b|-B <new_branch> []

Specifying -b causes a new branch to be created as if git-branch(1) were called and then checked out.

If -B is given, <new_branch> is created if it doesnt exist; otherwise, it is reset. This is the transactional equivalent of

git merge [branch]

merge the specified branchs history into the current one

git log

show all commits in the current branchs history

TRACKING PATH CHANGES

Versioning file removes and path changes

=================================

Delete the file from project and stage the removal for commit

git rm [file]

Change an existing file path and stage the move

git mv [existing-path] [new-path]

Show all commit logs with indication of any paths that moved

git log --stat -M

Checker le satus

git status

Ajouter un element dans la branche

git add Readme.md

Commit les changement

git commit -m "First commit"

Show all commit

git checkout

Merge

git merge

Setup

Configuring user information used across all local repositories

git config --global user.name “[firstname lastname]”

set a name that is identifiable for credit when review version history

git config --global user.email “[valid-email]”

set an email address that will be associated with each history marker

git config --global color.ui auto

set automatic command line coloring for Git for easy reviewing

Saving your uncommitted work for a quick fix then getting it back

git stash

temporarily stash your work since your last commit

git stash pop

fetch your stashed work to continue it

$ git stash pop stash@{2}

in case you want to apply a specific Stash item (not the most recent one), you can provide the index name of that item in the "pop" option

Rewriting history

git commit --amend -m "New commit message"

replace the last commit

git commit --amend --no-edit

replace the last commit without changing the commit message

git rebase -i {branch}

take the precedent commit and add it to your branch

Ignoring files

touch .gitignore && echo {what you want to ignore} >> .gitignore

create a file and specify what (extensions, directories, files) to ignore in it

git rm --cached {fileignored}

remove from the tracking index a file that should be ignored but wasnt because already tracked when the ignore rule was created
