One Pager Cheat Sheet

• Git is an open source, widely used version control system, which simplifies the collaboration of software developers by allowing them to track changes, create branches, and merge them back to the main repository.
• You can use git branch, git check and git merge to create, select and merge branches, and view diffs, commits and the change history with git diff, git show and git log.
• Git checkout can be used to switch branches, providing the name of the desired branch to enter, for example git checkout my_branch.
• Fetch, Pull and Push are the three Git commands used to synchronize local and remote repositories.
• The git pull command fetches and merges the latest changes from a remote repository into the local branch of your workspace.
• By learning the most important commands such as git clean, git bisect, git commit --amend and git command --help, you can significantly improve your productivity and performance.
• The command git show is used to view the changes within a specific file, and optionally takes a commit identifier as an argument to display the changes for a specified commit.
