Finding who committed what
In Git, pinpointing the author of a specific line of code can be essential for various reasons, from tracking down bugs to acknowledging efficient implementations.
Smartly save stashes
As I find myself relying more on stashing in Git, I’ve realized that the default output of git stash list isn’t always the most helpful
How git stores your data
This overview delves into the fundamental concepts of how Git organizes and stores data, offering essential insights for those learning Git.
Remote tracking branches
Are remote tracking branches leaving you feeling puzzled? You’re not alone. Let’s break it down. Essentially, there are two types of branches in Git
Tagging
Tagging in Git serves as a valuable method to denote specific release versions of your code or to reference a particular commit in your project’s history.
Branching and merging
Branching in Git is simpler than you might imagine. It’s fast (just 40 characters written to a file), straightforward (one command to create a branch)
Pushing and pulling
Today, we’re delving into a fundamental yet potent aspect of Git, and other similar version control systems: distribution! As you might already know, your commits reside locally, and repositories are essentially clones of each other.
Reverting files
Reverting files in Git can be confusing because there are multiple ways to accomplish it. Let’s go over some basic commands to help you undo your work effectively.
