--graph : Draw a text-based graphical representation of the commit history on the left hand side of the output.
--oneline : This is a shorthand for --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit used together.
--decorate : Print out the ref names of any commits that are shown
--all : Pretend as if all the refs in refs/, along with HEAD, are listed on the command line as <commit>
--relative-date|--date=relative: shows dates relative to the current time, e.g. “2 hours ago”.
--stat : Generate a diffstat. By default, as much space as necessary will be used for the filename part, and the rest for the graph part
--merges : Print only merge commits. This is exactly the same as --min-parents=2
--merge : After a failed merge, show refs that touch files having a conflict and don’t exist on all heads to merge
--source : show the ref (branch) name given on the command line by which each commit was reached
--pretty[=<format>]|--format=<format>: Pretty-print the contents of the commit logs in a given format, where can be one of oneline, short, medium, full, fuller, email, raw, format:<string> and tformat:<string>. When <format> is none of the above, and has %placeholder in it, it acts as if --pretty=tformat:<format> were given. See the "PRETTY FORMATS" section for some additional details for each format. When =<format> part is omitted, it defaults to medium.
--grep=<pattern>: Limit the commits output to ones with log message that matches the specified pattern (regex). With more than one --grep=<pattern>, commits whose message matches any of the given patterns are chosen (but see --all-match). When --show-notes is in effect, the message from the notes is matched as if it were part of the log message.
--all-match: Limit the commits output to ones that match all given --grep, instead of ones that match at least one
--invert-grep: Limit the commits output to ones with log message that do not match the pattern specified with --grep=<pattern>
-i|--regexp-ignore-case: Match the regular expression limiting patterns without regard to letter case
--basic-regexp: Consider the limiting patterns to be basic regular expressions; this is the default
-E|--extended-regexp: Consider the limiting patterns to be extended regular expressions instead of the default basic regular expressions
-F|--fixed-strings: Consider the limiting patterns to be fixed strings (don’t interpret pattern as a regular expression)
--perl-regexp: Consider the limiting patterns to be Perl-compatible regular expressions. Requires libpcre to be compiled in
-S<string>: Look for differences that change the number of occurrences of the specified string (i.e. addition/deletion) in a file. Intended for the scripter’s use.
It is useful when you’re looking for an exact block of code (like a struct), and want to know the history of that block since it first came into being: use the feature iteratively to feed the interesting block in the preimage back into -S, and keep going until you get the very first version of the block.
-G<regex>: Look for differences whose patch text contains added/removed lines that match . Notice the difference between -S<regex> --pickaxe-regex and -G<regex>.
--pickaxe-all: When -S or -G finds a change, show all the changes in that changeset, not just the files that contain the change in
--pickaxe-regex: Treat the given to -S as an extended POSIX regular expression to match
-w|--ignore-all-space: Ignore whitespace when comparing lines. This ignores differences even if one line has whitespace where the other line has none
-a |--all : automatically stage files that have been modified and deleted, but new files you have not told Git about are not affected
--reset-author : When used with -C/-c/--amend options, or when committing after a conflicting cherry-pick, declare that the authorship of the resulting commit now belongs to the committer. This also renews the author timestamp.
-m <msg>|--message=<msg> : Use the given <msg> as the commit message. If multiple -m options are given, their values are concatenated as separate paragraphs (use multiple -m attributes for multi-line commit message)
--amend : Replace the tip of the current branch by a new commit. The new commit has the same parents and author as the current one (the --reset-author option can countermand this). It is a rough equivalent for:
$ git reset --soft HEAD^
$ ... do something else to come up with the right tree ...
$ git commit -c ORIG_HEAD
-F <file>|--file=<file> : Take the commit message from the given file
-v|--verbose : Show unified diff between the HEAD commit and what would be committed at the bottom of the commit message template to help the user describe the commit by reminding what changes the commit has. Note that this diff output doesn’t have its lines prefixed with #. This diff will not be a part of the commit message.
--dry-run : Do not create a commit, but show a list of paths that are to be committed, paths with local changes that will be left uncommitted and paths that are untracked.
<file>… : When files are given on the command line, the command commits the contents of the named files, without recording the changes already staged
git reset HEAD~1 [--mixed]: remove a commit (reset HEAD to 1st previous commit) & KEEP changes in working directory/tree
git reset HEAD~1 --soft: remove a commit (reset HEAD to 1st previous commit) & KEEP changes in "Changes to be committed"
git reset HEAD~1 --hard: remove a commit (reset HEAD to 1st previous commit) & DISCARD changes in working directory/tree
git revert <commit>: Revert/Undo/Negate the changes specified by a commit and Create a new commit with the reverted changes
-n|--no-commit : Usually the command automatically creates some commits with commit log messages stating which commits were reverted. This flag applies the changes necessary to revert the named commits to your working tree and the index, but does not make the commits
-f|--force : proceed even if the index or the working tree differs from HEAD. This is used to throw away local changes.
-b <new_branch> : Create a new branch named <new_branch> and start it at <start_point>
-t|--track : set up "upstream" configuration
-m|--merge : When switching branches, if you have local modifications to files that are different between the current branch and the branch to which you are switching, the command refuses to switch branches in order to preserve your modifications in context. However, with this option, a three-way merge between the current branch, your working tree contents, and the new branch is done, and you will be on the new branch.
--detach : Rather than checking out a branch to work on it, check out a commit for inspection and discardable experiments. This is the default behavior of "git checkout " when is not a branch name.
git checkout <branch/commit>
-d|--delete: Delete a branch. The branch must be fully merged in its upstream branch, or in HEAD if no upstream was set with --track or --set-upstream.
-D : Shortcut for --delete --force.
-f|--force : Reset to if exists already
-i|--ignore-case : Sorting and filtering branches are case insensitive.
-m|--move : Move/rename a branch and the corresponding reflog. To rename: git branch -m <oldname> <newname>.To rename the current branch, you can do: git branch -m <newname>.
-r|--remotes : List both remote-tracking branches.
-a|--all : List both remote-tracking branches and local branches.
-u <upstream>|--set-upstream-to=<upstream>: Set up 's tracking information so is considered 's upstream branch. git branch -u myRemoteName/myBranchName [myBranchName]
-a |--all : automatically stage files that have been modified and deleted, but new files you have not told Git about are not affected
-w|--ignore-all-space: Ignore whitespace when comparing lines
--ignore-blank-lines: Ignore changes whose lines are all blank
