GIT Introduction

Introduction to Git
• Git is a distributed version control system (VCS) designed to handle
everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.
Tracks changes in source code during software
Wh development.
y Enable multiple developers to work on a project
simultaneously.
use Provide tools for collaboration and backup.

Basic Git Concepts
• A directory containing your project and the full history
Repository of all changes.
• A snapshot of your project at a point in time.
Commit
• A parallel version of a repository, allowing multiple
Branch lines of development.
• Combining changes from different branches.
Merge
• Creating a copy of an existing repository.
Clone
• Fetching and integrating changes from a remote
Pull repository.
• Sending changes to a remote repository.

Git Branching
Branching in Git allows you to create separate lines of development
within a repository. Each branch can contain its own set of changes,
enabling you to work on different features or fixes independently from
the main codebase.

Checkout
Merging in Git
combines changes
from one branch into
another. It integrates Checkout in Git allows you
the work done in to switch between
different branches, branches. It updates the
ensuring that all working directory to
changes are included reflect the contents of the

on.
Git Branching Commands
git branch <branch_name>
git checkout –b <branch_name>
git checkout <branch_name>
git branch
git merge <branch name>
git branch –d <branch_name>
git branch –d <branch_name>
git branch –m <new_branch_name>
git log <branch_name>
git diff <source_branch> <target_branch>
git branch --merged
git branch --no-merged
git push origin <branch_name>
git push origin --delete <branch_name>
git fetch
git pull origin <branch_name>

Git Stashing Commands
git stash OR git stash save “your message”
git stash list

Git Tags and its Commands
• Tags in Git are git tag <tag_name>
markers used to label git tag –a <tag_name> -m “tag
specific points in the message”
git tag
repository's history
as important. They git show <tag_name>
are often used to git push origin <tag_name>
denote release
git push origin –tags
versions, providing a
way to reference and git tag –d <tag_name>
manage snapshots of git push origin –delete
the project at <tag_name>
particular moments.
Other Useful Commands
git status : To check status of working directory and staging area.
git diff : To check the changes in working directory that haven’t staged.
git diff –staged : To check the changes between staging area and last commit.
git log : To show commit history
git blame <filename> : To check who last modified the file.
git reflog : To check the history of all actions like commits, checkouts, etc.
git reset –soft HEAD~1 : Move the head back by one commit but leave the working
directory unchanged.
git reset –hard HEAD~1 : Move the head back by one commit but discard all changes
from the working directory.
git remote remove origin : To remove the added path of remote repository.
