Hi,
I am new to git .Can someone explain in simple terms what git fetch,git
merge and git rebase do?..I tried googling but was very confused after
going
thro it.
Also, can someone prescribe a link which explains git in detail right from
scratch.
another definition of git-rebase:
git-rebase: the MOST DANGEROUS command in git. you can easily DESTROY your
repo if you don't know what you're doing! Until you get the hang of it,
always make a copy of the before-image of the branch your rebasing
(mybranch) by doing a "git checkout mybranch" and then "git branch
copy-of-mybranch". Then if you destroy mybranch you can recover it from
copy-of-mybranch.
What about 'git rebase --hard', or 'git branch -D'? In all cases you
can recover by using the reflog.
i take you meant 'git reset --hard'...
v/r,
neal
