rebase FEATUREBRANCH to master from upstream

git checkout FEATUREBRANCH
git pull upstream master --rebase

Reduce the number of commits for a pull request

How many commits you want to reduce?

git log --oneline

Assuming 2

git rebase -i HEAD~2

In this editor, replace the topmost pick with r (reword) and all pick's below with f (fixup).

In the topmost line, only r (reword) is parsed, the (reworded) message in the line is ignored and after quiting the first editor a second editor opens to enter the reworded commit message.

Rebase a branch to master on a forked repo

git rebase master YOUR_BRANCH
# DO NOT git pull BECAUSE IT SOMEHOW REVERTS THE REBASE
git push --force origin

Add a second remote

git remote add cmcmarrow https://github.com/cmcmarrow/salt.git
git fetch cmcmarrow
git remote -vv
git checkout --track cmcmarrow/code_Page_for_shell ???
git checkout --track origin/code_Page_for_shell  ???

"This branch is X commits ahead of UPSTREAM:master"

If I want UPSTREAM and want to delete my local changes and commits:

git checkout master
git fetch upstream
git reset --hard upstream/master
git push --force

https://github.saobby.my.eu.orgmunity/t/syncing-a-fork-leaves-me-one-commit-ahead-of-upstream-master/1435/3

Resolve "You have not concluded your merge (MERGE_HEAD exists)"

Repeat:

git merge --abort 

SVN::revert a file with uncommited changes (only changed in my working copy) to the latest commit

git checkout filename

SVN::unversion (remove from version control but leave local)

git rm --cached FILE

and add file to .gitignore

diff on file which is committed but not pushed

git diff origin FILE

see all commits on all branches that aren't pushed yet

Overview

git diff --stat --cached origin/master

Show diff lines

git diff --cached origin/master

List branches with their latest commits and status

git branch -avv

Delete branch

git branch -d FOO
git push origin -d FOO

Other commands

git cherry -v
git diff 4ad879ee548630b6a9dd076d308acf2e667564ee^!

git log --branches --not --remotes

Undo commit NOT pushed to remote

git reset HEAD PATH_TO/FILE
git reset HEAD~1
git status

https://git-scm.com/docs/git-reset

Undo add FILE

git reset FILE

Resolve "master branch and 'origin/master' have diverged"

git log HEAD..origin/master
git rebase origin/master
git pull --rebase 

from Stackoverflow

Create local branch for new things

git checkout -b NEW_THINGS 

DO NOT ADD origin/master!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
git checkout -b NEW_THINGS origin/master

Clone remote branch

Problem 1: git clone does not clone branches, but git fetch origin does. Problem 2: git fetch origin does not clone branches if you did git clone --depth=1

git fetch origin
git brach -r         // show remote branches
      FIND! origin/B1
git checkout B1
      VERIFY!    Branch 'B1' set up to track remote branch 'B1' from 'origin'.
      VERIFY!    Switched to a new branch 'B1'

Update master branch of fork of salt

Salt has this doc

THIS WORKS

git fetch --tags --all
git pull upstream master

THIS DOES NOT WORK

git pull --all

Rebase should not be needed because you should not work on master

git checkout master
git fetch upstream
git merge --ff-only upstream/master || git pull --rebase origin master
git push origin master

Update non-master branch of fork of salt

YOUR MASTER BRANCH MUST NOT CONTAIN WORK

MAYBE THIS WORKS

git pull --rebase

SVN::revert all local changes

git checkout .    | revert changes on your working copy
git clean -n      | show delete
git clean -f      | delete files
git clean -fd     | delete file and folders

Fork master has no changes but "This branch is X commits ahead of master"

git reset --hard upstream/master
git push --force

Don't pull in between
