My Personal Git Cheat Sheet

Purpose

Since I keep googling these over and over.....

Definitions

upstream = The original repo, from which I forked origin = My forked copy, or the repo I am pushing directly to

Commands

• Sync master back with Origin (after having got ahead of Origin):

  git remote update
  git reset --hard upstream/master
  git push origin +master

• Create a feature branch:

  git checkout -b <branch_name>

• Push that new feature branch to origin:

  git push origin <branch_name>

• Cleanup a feature branch (local and origin):

  git branch -D <branch_name>
  git push origin --delete <branch_name>
