Tracking Remote Branches With Different Names - Learn Git the Hard Way

$ git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-REPOSITORY

git log --all --graph --decorate

- git init         #Initialise locat repositiry
- git add <file>   #Add files to index
- git status       #Check status of working tree
- git commit       #Commit changes in index
- git push         #Push to remote repository
- git pull         #Pull latest from remote repository
- git clone        #Clone repository into a new directory
##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Configure
- git config --global user.name 'Ian Horne'
- git config --global user.email 'ian@ihorne.com'
##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. File to staging
- git add <file name> #Add file 
- git rm <file name>  #Remove file
- git add *.py        #Add all .py files to staging area
- git add .           #Add all files in directory to staging area
##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Commit staging area to your local repository
- git commit -m "your comments"
##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Ignore file
- create .git ignore file <touch .gitignore> 
- enter file or folder into .gitignore file to exclude it from the repository 
   -Add file           - <file.ext>
   -Add directory      - </dirname> 
   -Add all text files - <*.txt>
##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Branches - https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/using-branches
- git branch <branch_name>    #Create branch
- git checkout <branch_name>  #move to branch
- git add <filename>          #add file change to branches
- git commit -m "comments"    #commit file and add comments
- git checkout <master>       #move to main branch
- git merge <branch name>     #merge branch into current branch location
- git push                    #push branch to hub
- git branch -d <branch>      #delete branch

##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Remove repositories
- Create new repository
- git remote                #list all remote repositories
- git remote add origin https://github.com/Ianhorne73/WageReport.git
- git push -u origin master
##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Future workflow
- change file
- git add .
- git push
##-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clone repository 
- git clone <get link from GIT hub>  #Clone repository from GIT Hub
- git pull                           #Get latest updates

git clone --branch <branchname> <remote-repo-url>

# you need to be on the working branch
git checkout _branch_name
git add .
git commt -m "my branch commit"

# pull and merge
git pull

# push commit
git push

git branch -vv

git checkout -- .

- create a new repository on the command line
    git init
    git add README.md
    git commit -m "first commit"
    git branch -M main
    git remote add origin <HTTPS>
    git push -u origin main

- push an existing repository from the command line
    git remote add origin https://github.com/ramdaniAli/backupApp.git
    git branch -M main
    git push -u origin main

usage: git [--version] [--help] [-C <path>] [-c <name>=<value>]
           [--exec-path[=<path>]] [--html-path] [--man-path] [--info-path]
           [-p | --paginate | -P | --no-pager] [--no-replace-objects] [--bare]

           <command> [<args>]

These are common Git commands used in various situations:

   mv                Move or rename a file, a directory, or a symlink
   restore           Restore working tree files
   rm                Remove files from the working tree and from the index
   sparse-checkout   Initialize and modify the sparse-checkout

examine the history and state (see also: git help revisions)
   bisect            Use binary search to find the commit that introduced a bug
   diff              Show changes between commits, commit and working tree, etc
   grep              Print lines matching a pattern
   log               Show commit logs
   show              Show various types of objects
   status            Show the working tree status

grow, mark and tweak your common history
