    #Helpful Git Commands
###Add to previous commit
git commit --amend --reuse-message 
###Change the commit message
git commit --amend 
###Stash Specific File
git stash -p
###Delete untracked files
git clean -f
However you will want to do a dry run before hand '-n' or '--dry-run' will do this
###Delete Local Branches
git branch -D 
###Delete Remote Branches
git push origin --delete 
###Mass Delete Branches
git branch | grep "term_within_branchname" | xargs -n 1 git branch -D
This is given that you strategically named your branch
Warning
This command deletes unmerged branches
###Cherry Pick
git cherry-pick 
This gives the log of a different branch (useful in attaining commit hash)
git log 
###Delete a tag
git tag -d 
###Stage specific changes within a file
git add --patch
###Delete branches from your origin DB that were deleted
git fetch -p origin
###Rename Files
git mv source destination
Be sure to use git, or else your commit will have 2 file changes (1 removed and one added) rather than just 1 renamed file
###Clean deleted remote branches
git remote prune <remote(origin)>
###Delete Commits
git rebase -i 
The commitHash here is the hash of the last commit you want to keep
This opens your set git editor (in your .gitconfig) and lists all the commits after the  you set.  You just     delete the commits you don't want
###Ignore file mode (permissions) change
git config core.fileMode false
###Restore file to previous version
git checkout abcde file/to/restore
###Reset local branch to remote head
git reset --hard remote/branch
You may want to check out to a branch to back up what you've already done
