Hi everyone this are the git commands which I use frequently as a developer in my day to day life.so I thought to share this with all of you.please do comment your frequently use git commands in comment section

stash

The git stash command is a utility that allows a developer to temporarily save modified files. However, it is a utility that should only be used occasionally because it only involves local repository history. Code stored in a local stash is not visible to other developers, nor is it replicated to other git repositories like GitHub or GitLab when a push occurs.

git stash push

• Creates a new stash and rolls back the state of all modified files

git stash apply

• Takes the files in a stash and places them back into the development workspace, but does not delete the stash from history

git stash pop

• Takes the files in a stash, places them back into the development workspace and deletes the stash from history

Creating a new branch from existing branch

git checkout -b new-branch-name

Renaming a branch

1.For renaming a branch you have to checkout to that branch you have to rename

git branch -m new-branch-name

2.Delete the old branch name by running

git push origin --delete old-branch-name

3.Reset the upstream branch to the name of your new local branch by running

git push origin -u new-branch-name.

Deleting a branch

For deleting a branch you have to checkout to another branch because git will not let you delete the branch you are currently working on

• deleting branch locally

git branch -d <branch-name>

• deleting a branch Remotely

git push origin --delete <branch-name>

Undo Local Staged Changes in Git

git restore --staged filename

Removing the Last Commit

To remove the last commit from git, you can simply run

 git reset --hard HEAD^ 

If you are removing multiple commits from the top, you can run

git reset --hard HEAD~2

to remove the last two commits. You can increase the number to remove even more commits.

Removing a specific commit

To undo that specific commit, you have to use the commit hash of that specific commit

git revert cc3bbf7 --no-edit

The command above will undo the changes by creating a new commit and reverting that file to its previous state, as if it never changed.

Lastly, use git push to push the change to the remote branch.

Renaming a commit

To change the message of the most recent commit that has not been pushed to the remote repository, commit it again using the --amend flag.

git commit --amend -m"new commit messsage"
