Branching with Git

Here some code / command snippets to manage a code repository in Git.
No matter if it’s hosted on GitHub, GitLab or BitBucket

Setup Git

git config
--global user.name <git-user>
--global user.email <email>

Local repository

git init <repo-name>

Server Repository: Gui -> create Repository -> note URL

git remote add origin <url>
git push origin +main

Staging

git add .
git add <file-name>

Check Status

git status
git log
git log --oneline

Undo commit

git revert <id>
git revert HEAD~n
git reset --hard HEAD~n   --> "rm -rf"
git reset --soft HEAD~n   --> back to staging

Checkout and compare

git diff <file>
git checkout <file>
git checkout <branch>

Rename “master” to “main”

git branch -M main
git push -u origin main
git push origin --delete master

create new branch

git checkout <source-branch>
git chechout -b <dest-branch>
git push -u origin <dest-branch>
