Git Cheat Sheet

Git Repositories (unlike subversion and TFS) actually live in the directory with your files.

Adding a Remote Repository on BitBucket (After you created a local Git repository)

git remote add SomeName https://bitbucket.org/FernandoRodriguesBitBucket/SomeName

Create a Upstream Branch

git push --set-upstream somename master

Creating a Repository

mkdir /repofolder
git init /* Tell Git to track everything is this directory */

Set name and email to mark all changes with it

git config user.name "Fernando Rodrigues"
git config user.email "mail@mail.com"

Say to Git to start tracking a file

git add filename

Add files to the repository (check in)

git commit -a -m "Message about the files"

Create a Branch

git branch branchname

Change to the master branch

git branch master

Delete a Branch

git branch -D branchname

Change to another branch

git checkout nameofbranch

Create a tag on Git

git tag -a tagname -m "descriptionofthetag"

Merge two branches

//Move to the main branch and
git merge nameofthebranchwithsomethingnew /* or not */

Enable sintax highlighting on MAC

git config --global color.ui auto

Stop tracking a file

git rm --cached filename

Shows commit logs

git log
