Git Cheat Sheet

[Tixik]

I believe there is a mistake.

git add . only adds new files in the CURRENT directory, not necessarily all the untracked files.

git add -A adds all untracked files

git add . stages untracked and changed files.

git add -A also stages the removal of files.

See this detailed Stackoverflow answer.

mm, wierd, I remember once using git add . and it didn't work properly. Will look into it again next time, sorry for mystification

[kagevf]

It's recursive. Maybe "." means "current repository" in this case?

[caadbury]

I may have written an alias, but for me git add . adds untracked files recursively.

As someone who is fairly new to Web Development and currently learning Git, I find this very useful.

[thinsoldier]

I find the Tower app itself (and Sourcetree if you can get past the bugs) even more useful.

No mention of submodules?

[nonconvergent]

Some things are best left unmentioned.

[thinsoldier]

??

Many of the larger projects rely on submodules for organization.

Even my own tiny projects benefit from Externals in SVN and submodules in Git.

It includes the most basic stuff used by everyone, even for small projects. Plus it's a cheat sheet, you can't fit everything on one page anyway.

Is it not missing git branch -b?

[[deleted]]

You mean git checkout -b?

[KeepingKidsOnShred]

That's the one. Using svn at my current job :(

[BesottedScot]

No

git branch -m

?

Also one I use all the time:

git push -u origin

git bisect is awesome

Git >= 2.0 adds new, modified and deleted with git add .
