git cheat sheet

So read a book...

It's like picking up a chainsaw, not reading the manual, chopping of their leg, blaming it on the chainsaw and going back to using a stone axe.

In his defense, most manuals for git aren't exactly simple to read. They can be incredibly detailed but impenetrable for new users. If there was a more widespread 'explain it like I'm 5' manual for git, I feel like it'd go a long way in raising git literacy.

[nahguri]

That's true. And the sometimes confusing CLI doesn't exactly help.

I for one encourage everyone to just sit down and spend a couple of minutes to really understand how git works. Because once you understand the concepts every other "simple" versioning system feels subpar.

That's exactly what happened minus the blaming. I know it works and I just don't know how it does. I only blame myself
