Useful git commands
Useful git tricks I’ve learned that I always end up coming back to:
Replace master with another branch:
From stackoverflow:
git checkout seotweaks
git merge -s ours master
git checkout master
git merge seotweaks
Update the submodules in a newly cloned project:
From the git book:
git submodule init
git submodule update
git-svn
Clone a repository:
git svn clone https://example.com/my_repo local_dir
Useful flags:
-s standard layout (trunk branches tags)
-r 1000:HEAD specific revisions
Create ignore files:
echo ".gitignore" >> .git/info/exclude
git svn create-ignore
Commit back to SVN:
git svn dcommit
