Commands

Logging

git net shows repo graph

net = "log --graph --abbrev-commit --decorate --all --format=format:\"%C(bold blue)%h%C(reset) - %C(bold cyan)%aD%C(dim white) - %an%C(reset) %C(bold green)(%ar)%C(reset)%C(bold yellow)%d%C(reset)%n %C(white)%s%C(reset)\""

Stage files

git a adds all files to index

a = "add --all"

git ai adds files to index in iterective mode

ai = "add -i"

Commiting

git ci commits changes in interactive mode

ci = "commit -i"

git c commits changes and shows chenges that have been added in this commit

c = "!git commit && git changed"

git ca adds all files to index, commits changes and shows chenges that have been added in this commit

ca = "!git add --all && git c"

git cm amends previous commit using same message

cm = "commit --amend --no-edit"

Merging

git m [branch] merges branch with creating merge commit and default merge commit message

m = "merge --no-ff --no-edit"

git m-[dev/master/staging/ some-another-branch] merges current branch into branch specified in command. Workflow:

1. Checkouts dev/master/staging/some-another-branch
2. Performs pull
3. Merges previous branch into dev/master/staging/some-another-branch

m- = "!f() { git checkout $1 && git pl && git m -; }; f"
m-dev = "!git m- dev"
m-master = "!git m- master"
m-staging = "!git m- staging"

Undo

git uf [file] cancels changes in file

uf = "checkout HEAD --"

git u [commit] undo changes to specified commit

u = "!git add --all && git reset --hard"

Temporary file ignoring

git lock [file] ignore file until git unlock will be called

lock = "update-index --assume-unchanged"

git unlock [file] continue tracking specified file

unlock = "update-index --no-assume-unchanged"

git locked shows all locked files

locked = "!git ls-files -v | grep ^h | cut -c 3-"

git unlock-all unlocks all locked files

unlock-all = "!git locked | xargs -n 1 git unlock"

Other

git phf force push branch

phf = "push --force-with-lease"

git s shortcut for git status

s = "status --short --branch"

git it shortcut for initing repo. Workflow:

1. Init git
2. Create empty commit as root of repo

it = "!git init && git commit -m 'Initial commit' --allow-empty"

git prev checkouts previous branch or comit

prev = "checkout -"

git changed shows changes that has been added in last commit

changed = "show --stat --oneline HEAD"
