Git Cheat Sheet Explained

The only Git cheat sheet you'll ever need

I find myself looking for the same commands over and over when working with Git, so I decided to make a little cheat sheet for myself of the commands that I use the most

Get latest version of a branch

git pull

Create new branch

git checkout -b [name_of_your_new_branch]

Add latest changes made in a repository

# Add all the changed
git add .
# Add specific changes
git add <file(s) name(s)>

Commit your changes and add a title and a description

git commit -m "Title" -m "Description"

Push your changes to your remote repository

git push origin

The work origin is a alias your system uses to refer to the URL of your project’s repository. You can check the origin value with the command:

git remote -v

After your done you can delete your branch

git branch --delete [name_of_your_branch]
