cd Sites/
mkdir git-in-charge-of-your-code
cd git-in-charge-of-your-code
echo "# git-in-charge-of-your-code" >> README.md
git init
git add README.md
git commit -m "first commit"
git remote add origin https://github.com/wirthdesign/git-in-charge-of-your-code.git
git push -u origin master

Removing Files

git rm

Use this git command to remove a file from your repository. If removing a directory you need to pass additional options.

git rm README.md

rm 'README.md'

Use this git command to add files individually or pass -A to add all files with uncommitted changes.

git add path/to-the/file/README.md


git add -A

Cloning Repos

git clone <repo>

The clone command will pull down a repository you don't have already.

cd Sites/
git clone https://github.com/wirthdesign/spaceapps.git

Workflow

Branching

STEP 1.

Feature Branches

The master branch is sacred! Keep it production ready in case of an emergency fix. All new features or fixes should go into branches.

source

git branch add-paypal-integration
git checkout add-paypal-integration

Switched to branch 'add-paypal-integration'

STEP 2.

Create Feature

git add -A
git commit -m "Added PayPal integration to payment methods."

[add-paypal-integration 3598464] Added PayPal integration to payment methods.
    6 files changed, 6 insertions(+)
    create mode 100644 classes/
    create mode 100644 classes/paypal.php
    create mode 100644 classes/paypal/
    create mode 100644 classes/paypal/expresscheckout.php
    create mode 100644 config/
    create mode 100644 config/paypal.php

git push --set-upstream origin add-paypal-integration

 * [new branch]      add-paypal-integration -> add-paypal-integration
Branch new-feature set up to track remote branch new-feature from origin.

STEP 3.

Merging into Master

git checkout master

Switched to branch 'master'
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.

git merge add-paypal-integration

Conflicts!

git conflicts

Sometimes when you pull or merge code you will get file conflicts. Conflicts need to be resolved and appear in your terminal with a C next to them.
