Julia Evans' Git cheat sheet (programming.dev)

submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Git cheat sheets are a dime-a-dozen but I think this one is awfully concise for its scope.

Visually covers branching (WITH the commands -- rebasing the current branch can be confusing for the unfamiliar)
Covers reflog
Literally almost identical to how I use git (most sheets are either Too Much or Too Little)

One missing point:

git stash $NAME lets you name a stash, and then you also can pop with that name to restore.

Super useful if you're doing something with plotting or presenting data and you want to try a few easy variants to see what you like most. I don't use it all the time but it's good to know.
