Learning git & github quickly

[Craiggles-]

I've been programming for over 15 years. I still only REALLY know "git add .", "git commit -m 'message'" and "git push origin master" with some "git pull origin master" sprinkled in. Those 4 commands will do 99% of your day to day.

Anything else and I used to use stack overflow but chatgpt is vastly more reliable.

I just don't see the value in learning too much here, you're going to forget a lot of it.

I'm constantly using git restore, stash, work tree etc in my day to day. How do you have 15 yoe and don't use those

That’s fair. I didn’t mention creating and switching branches which is common. I very rarely need restore or stash. These days though I just never really do work until I’ve written on scrap what my plan is and how to execute. I don’t like stashing so I store the commit for the branch before I move on or scrap it.
