Git - Frequently Used

Some git commands I frequently use but sometimes keep forgetting.

restore


# restore a file
git restore --source <branch_name> <file_relative_path>
 
# restore to master
git restore --source master pages/docs/index.tsx
# restore to one last commit in master
git restore --source master~1 pages/docs/index.tsx
# restore to one last commit in current branch
git restore -source=HEAD~1 pages/docs/index.tsx
 
# restore a folder
git restore --source <branch_name> <folder_relative_path>
git restore -source=HEAD~1 pages/docs

rebase


# init rebase
git rebase <upstream> <branch_name>
# pull and rebase
git pull --rebase <upstream> <branch_name>
 
# when resolve conflicts
## after resolving conflicts and add to staged
git rebase --continue
## to cancel rebase process
git rebase --abort

relocate last commit to another branch

when you accidentally commit to branch_a but actually you want to commit it in branch_b


git checkout branch_a
git reset HEAD~1
 
git checkout -b branch_b
# or
git checkout branch_b
 
git add --all
git commit -m "commit message"

remove created tag


git tag -d <tag_name>
