How to Use Git

Your two-factor secret

What is Git?
• Git is a widely used modern version control system for tracking changes in computer files. The
term version control system suggests a system that records all the changes made to a file or
set of data, so a specific version can be considered whenever needed. This feature makes the
process of collaboration so feasible with all team members, making it considerably more
comfortable to work over a big project.
• Git makes it possible for several people involved in the project to work together and track
each other's progress over time. In software development, the tool helps in Source Code
Management. Git favors not only programmers but also non-technical users by keeping track
of their project files.
• While working on Git, we actively use two repositories.
• Local repository: The local repository is present on our computer and consists of all the files
and folders. This Repository is used to make changes locally, review history, and commit when
offline.
• Remote repository: The remote repository refers to the server repository that may be present
anywhere. This repository is used by all the team members to exchange the changes made.
• Both repositories have their own set of commands. There are separate Git Commands that
work on different types of repositories.
git init

• The command git init is used to create an empty Git repository.


• After the git init command is used, a .git folder is created in the
directory with some subdirectories. Once the repository is initialized,
the process of creating other files begins.
• git init
git add
• Add command is used after checking the status of the files, to add
those files to the staging area.
• Before running the commit command, "git add" is used to add any
new or modified files.
• git add .
git commit
• The commit command
makes sure that the
changes are saved to the
local repository.
• The command "git
commit –m <message>"
allows you to describe
everyone and help them
understand what has
happened.
• git commit -m “commit
message”
git status

• The git status command tells the current state of the repository.
• The command provides the current working branch. If the files are in
the staging area, but not committed, it will be shown by the git status.
Also, if there are no changes, it will show the message no changes to
commit, working directory clean.
• git status
git config
• The git config command is
used initially to configure
the user.name and
user.email. This specifies
what email id and username
will be used from a local
repository.
• When git config is used with
--global flag, it writes the
settings to all repositories
on the computer.
• git config --global user.name
“any user name”
• git config --global user.email
<email id>
git branch
• The git branch command is used to determine what branch the local repository is
on.
• The command enables adding and deleting a branch.
• # Create a new branch
• git branch <branch_name>

• # List all remote or local branches


• git branch -a

• # Delete a branch
• git branch -d <branch_name>
git checkout
• The git checkout command is used to switch branches, whenever the
work is to be started on a different branch.
• The command works on three separate entities: files, commits, and
branches.
• # Checkout an existing branch
• git checkout <branch_name>

• # Checkout and create a new branch with that name


• git checkout -b <new_branch>
git merge
• The git merge command is used to integrate the branches together.
The command combines the changes from one branch to another
branch.
• It is used to merge the changes in the staging branch to the stable
branch.
• git merge <branch_name>
git remote
• The git remote command is used to create, view, and delete
connections to other repositories.
• The connections here are not like direct links into other repositories,
but as bookmarks that serve as convenient names to be used as a
reference.
• git remote add origin <address>
git clone
• The git clone command is used to create a local working copy of an
existing remote repository.
• The command downloads the remote repository to the computer. It is
equivalent to the Git init command when working with a remote
repository.
• git clone <remote_URL>
git pull
• The git pull command is used to fetch and merge changes from the
remote repository to the local repository.
• The command "git pull origin master" copies all the files from the
master branch of the remote repository to the local repository.
• git pull <branch_name> <remote URL>
git push
• The command git push is used to transfer the commits or pushing the
content from the local repository to the remote repository.
• The command is used after a local repository has been modified, and
the modifications are to be shared with the remote team members.
• git push -u origin master
Complete Commands
• create a new repository on the command line • Clone a remote repository
• echo "# autoencoder" >> README.md • The git clone command is used to create a local
• git init working copy of an existing remote repository.
• git add README.md
• The command downloads the remote repository to
• git commit -m "first commit"
the computer. It is equivalent to the Git init
• git branch -M main
command when working with a remote repository.
• git remote add origin
https://github.com/sonadorr/autoencoder.git • git clone <remote_URL>
• git push -u origin main • Pull and merge changes from remote to local
• push an existing repository from the command line • The git pull command is used to fetch and merge
• git remote add origin changes from the remote repository to the local
https://github.com/sonadorr/autoencoder.git repository.
• git branch -M main • The command "git pull origin master" copies all the
• git push -u origin main files from the master branch of the remote
• configure the user.name and user.email repository to the local repository.
• git config --global user.name “any user name” • git pull <branch_name> <remote URL>
• git config --global user.email <email id>
