Julia Evans' Git cheat sheet (programming.dev)

submitted 1 month ago by fool@programming.dev to c/programming@programming.dev

Git cheat sheets are a dime-a-dozen but I think this one is awfully concise for its scope.

Visually covers branching (WITH the commands -- rebasing the current branch can be confusing for the unfamiliar)
Covers reflog
Literally almost identical to how I use git (most sheets are either Too Much or Too Little)

The only time I see a rebase fail is due to a conflict. Which can be aborted with git rebase --abort no need for reflogs unless you really mess things up.

Maybe you resolved the conflict in the wrong way and want to restart after finishing the rebase.

Not sure I would say that is a rebase failing - just you messing things up. Can happen with any merge. But yeah that is a place where reflog would be useful. But I dont see why it would be on the cheat sheet instead of a git rebase --abort or be rebase specific.
