auto setup branch on origin when pushing

git config push.autoSetupRemote true

Local branch management

update master from any branch

git push . origin/master:master

reset local branch to origin state

git fetch origin
git reset --hard origin/master

rename LOCAL branch

git branch -m 
<newname>
# to push to origin, push new branch and delete old one
git push origin -u <newname>
git push origin --delete 
<oldname>

stash

stash only staged files

git stash push -S

stashing specific files

#only works for tracked files. Workaround -> add file, then stash
git stash -- file1.txt file2.txt
#I think always works?
git stash push file1.txt file2.txt

staging

only add parts of a change

git add -A --patch
git add --patch <filename>
git add --patch <filename>|'pattern'

changing history

remove not-the-last commits

git reset -i HEAD~10
# where 10 is the number commits to look back

changing commits

~~###~~

https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History

remove/change previous commit

git reset --soft head~

To split a previous commit into multiple commits:

git rebase -i
#in the editor, at the commit you want to split up, change pick to edit
git reset HEAD^
#now add changes and commit as desired

To add changes to a last commit, super easy:

git add <change>
git commit --amend

And to change the commit message

git commit --amend -m "new message"

hard reset one file

git checkout HEAD 
<pathtofile>
diff

diff

# see staged changes
git diff --cached
# see changes in a commit:
git diff COMMIT~ COMMIT
# or maybe
git show COMMIT
history

history

# find file that was deleted at some point in the git history
git checkout master (or latest)
# concise form, to see full history of file remove the "-1"
git log --full-history -1 -- 
<file>

Misc

misc

wildcard use

git add/reset/checkout 'search*search*'
git add folder
git add folder/*
