Git cheat sheet

History

list files in a commit

git --no-pager diff --name-only  HEAD~1 
git --no-pager diff --name-only  #COMMIT_ID

or

git show --pretty="" --name-only #COMMIT_ID

checkout remote branch

git checkout -b test <name of remote>/test

graph log

git log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit

as alias:

alias glog="git log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit"
alias glognp="git --no-pager log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit"

Delete remote branch

git push origin --delete feature/login

On error: 'would clobber existing tag'

git fetch --tags -f

Substitute when a squash merge of PR is disabled

 git reset $(git merge-base origin/development $(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD))

 git commit --all --message "A nice commit message"

 git push --force # Be careful with this. This can corrupt your and others work.
