git stuff

2018-09-28 17:41:42.485218+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

A Twitter thread on Git tips leads to this:

Fast tip: Enable git rerere right now. "rere" (reuse recorded resolution) replays previous conflict resolution when replaying conflicts in branch merges. git config --global rerere.enabled 1 enables it globally.

git config --global alias.pf 'push --force-with-lease' sets up an alias for pf. Various articles on this are easy to find.

git add -p and git reset -p give you the interactive mechanism for doing what you're probably already doing with git diff and carefully editing away unintended changes.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
