              git clone <repository name>
               Clones a repository located at <repository name> onto your local machine.

            
              git add <directory>
               Stages only the specified changes for the next commit. Replace <directory> with a <file> to change a specific file.

              git log
               Displays the entire commit history using the default format.

            
              git diff
               Shows unstaged changes between your index and working directory.

            
              git pull
               Fetchs the remote copy of the current branch.

            
              git pull --rebase <remote>
               Fetchs the remote copy of current branch and rebases it into the local copy. Use git rebase instead of merge to integrate the branches.

            
              git push origin master
               Push all of your commits to master branch.

              git push <remote> --force
               Forces the git push even if it results in a non-fast-forward merge. Do not use the --force flag unless you’re absolutely sure you know what you’re doing.

            
              git revert <commit>
               Creates new commit that undoes all of the changes made in <commit> and then applys it to the current branch.

            
              git reset <file>
               Removes <file> from the staging area but leaves the working directory unchanged - This unstages a file without overwriting any changes.

            
              git clean -n
               Shows which files would be removed from working directory. Use the -f flag in place of the -n flag to execute the clean.

            
              git commit --amend
               Replaces the last commit with the staged changes and last commit combined. Use with nothing staged to edit the last commit’s message.

              git log --stat

              git fetch <remote> <branch>
               Fetches a specific <branch> from the repo. Leave off <branch> to fetch all remote refs.
