Useful Git Commands

git stash

• If you are working on a branch and you need to switch to another branch to work on something else, then git will not allow you to do so if you have uncommittedd changes.
• In such a situation, git stash can be used to temporarily save uncommitted changes. It reverts your directory to the last committed state.

Use git stash when you want to record the current state of the working directory and the index, but want to go back to a clean working directory. The command saves your local modifications away and reverts the working directory to match the HEAD commit.

• Use git stash pop when you are ready to add the changes back to your code

git commit -am

• Instead of using git add . then git commit -m "commit message", you can use

  git commit -am "message"

View git remote URL

• git remote -v to view the remote URLs of a repository.
