//after executing the command
Commits are snapshots of a point in time or points of interest
along the timeline of a project's history.
//after executing git commit -m "message"
//Keep the commit atomic & give appropriate message
//should be single set of change-could be one or more files
//Every commit new snapshot is made
//If they are not related ,it is not good to commit together
//stage it and commit separately
//modifying a file
//again modifying without committing

//accidently overwriting
//story1.txt in staging area is cached
//got overwritten by accident
//restoring
//I want to commit story2.txt before story1.txt

//we can use restore
//git rm
//to remove file(s) from staged area
//be careful with arguments
//you added both by mistake

Git Log
29 August 2020 16:28
• Commit id /Commit Hash

• Author Name
• Date & Time Committed
• Commit Message
Git Branch
29 August 2020 23:24
Default branch is the master branch
Head is where you are currently in Git
Repository
Head points to the last commit in the

branch you are currently on
When you switch branches head moves with

you
Note : Any changes in a branch is reflected in other branch also when it added but commit takes a
separate snapshot
Git Merge //set vim as core editor in ubuntu
21 August 2020 14:55 //useful if you set to something else and is not working
1.changes in the master and committed will not reflect in

the branch
2. Note: already existing branch
3. We have to checkout to that branch and merge from
source
4.Left side is the example
Fastforward merge-when branch (non master) is
committed more than once and master is not changed.
Simple merge will work from master
No Fastforward merge- when master has 1 or more
commits and the non master branch does not know it
has its new commit . We have to use
--no-ff option
Rebasing
31 August 2020 01:03
//one liner command
//new merge commit happens
//we are basically putting one branch on top of other one
//new commit id is created when we merge
//when we rebase the commit id/hash is updated
//interactive rebase
//remember to squash the commits
Remote Repository
30 August 2020 00:36
//to list all the remote repositories

//we can push the data and fetch from the hosted repository
//current branch we are on
//Before Push, our local branch(master) has 3 more commits

//remote repository has update till Added second story
//We need to push the latest commit for remote repository to be in sync with local repo
//after push
//below is the case where lot of commits have happened but not set to remote
//repository & remote repository files and local master does not match
//so if we try to push ,it will not work
//
//if not remote is set then we use add
//to remove the existing remote git

//note:we have to use add again if we have to set
//to update the existing remote git
//if we want to push to remote first set the upstream and branch name
//if we want to push to remote first set the upstream and branch name
//sometimes it may not work, if there content in the local repo & remote repo does not match
//then we have to pull from remote & then push
//this can happen if remote master is merged from another branch in remote and we
//don’t have the changes
//suppose if the commits does not match because of different repositories we have to use
//--allow-unrelated-repositories
//git hub does not allow to raise pull request from remote if the branch histories are different
//solution is pull from remote branch ,merge here and update the master directly
Or
Pull Request
30 August 2020 01:14
Steps to create a pull request

1.push your branch to branch in your name(not master)
//below example content moves from local branch rakesh to remote branch rakesh
2. Rakesh has to create login to his github account & create a pull request
3.
4.
5. Click Compare & pull request
6.
7. The owner of the repo will check ,compare & merge
8.
9.
10.
Fetching & Pulling
30 August 2020 02:17
//any update happening to origin/master will ahead in commit in the remote

//it will not be automatically updated in the local
//In order to sync with the origin/master we have to (fetch & merge ) / pull
Or
Cloning & Forking
30 August 2020 22:16
Cloning Remote Repository
//when you clone, Repository Name RakeshVijay will become folder and the repo
//contents will be inside the RakeshVijay folder
//we have to shift to the RakeshVijay folder in order to access and Work on it
//we can also achieve the same with downloading the zip and unzipping in the location we wish to work
Forking
Forking is done to make a separate copy of the repository which we would not likely to merge it back
//eg some publicly available projects ex linux
//we can also contribute to the open source project, make changes in your copy & push it to your branch and generate pull request. If they agree
//with your code ,it will be merged
Merge Conflict
30 August 2020 22:56
1. When a merge conflict occurs, open the file remove what is not required & keep what is required
2. Add the file git add filename(s)
3. git commit
4. Git merge

Undoing
30 August 2020 02:55
// to move around in the previous commits

//to work normally again checkout branch you wish to work with
//unstaging
//to change the commit message
Git clean -n //dry run

Git clean -f //force clean
//git clean deletes the untracked files present in the working directory
//Note: Revert will delete the changes (any file added in the commit will be deleted)
//it will not be available in the staging as it is already committed
//it will keep the changes in git history
//hard reset , you will loose the contents committed if reset
//soft reset, the contents of the commit will be in the staging area
Undoing hard reset to HEAD

$ git reset --hard HEAD@{1}
$ git reset --soft HEAD@{1}

//to pop a specific stash
Reflog
01 September 2020 01:46
//this command shows us all the actions taken on this repo

//merges, reverts, resets, simple commit
//if we made a mistake, we can undo this by resetting HEAD based on the information
//from the reflog
Difference b/w git log & git reflog

Git log shows only information about the commits
Git reflog shows the information along with the state of the repository
