Git Cheatsheet
This is a list of frequently used git commands for reference.
I’ll be updating this section on an ongoing basis.
For the complete list of git commands I use the following link.
- Initialize a new git repository
git init - List all new or modified files to be committed
git status - Add files to the staging area
git add [filename] - Add files from staging area permanently to source control
git commit -m "[descriptive comment]" - Display history of all git commits
git log - Display historical git commits as single liner comments
git log --oneline - Check details of remote git repository url
git remote -v - Set remote repository url to origin
git remote add origin [http://remoteurl.git] - If existing remote origin url needs to be replaced with a different one
git remote set-url origin [http://newurl.git] - Push local changes to remote git repository
git push -u origin master - Clone remote git repository
git clone [http://remoteurl.git]
