Some minor nits (-), improvement suggestions (+), and corrections (*). - Recommended form for diff between 1 and 2 is "git diff $id1 $id2", not dotted form "$id1..$id2" + "git log -p $file" gives a false impression that it is about a single file. Better written as "git log -p $file $dir/ec/tory/" to suggest both usage. - Although they do the same thing ("annotate" is there only for backward compatibility) "git blame" is recommended over "git annotate", if only because that's the command name more often talked about in the community. If you are going to list only one, blame is the name to keep. + To start from a particular revision, use "git blame $version $file". - "git reset --hard HEAD"; you do not have to write HEAD there. - "Revert" has a specific meaning to git but people from different background interpret the word differently. Both "git revert HEAD" and "git revert $id" are about creating a new commit to reverse the effect of the named commit. * "git pull $branch1 $branch2" is wrong. If you are merging branch1 into branch2, you need to be on branch2 (i.e. have done "git checkout branch2") and then say "git merge branch1". + "git commit" is not about publishing at all. A major point about distributed SCMs is that unlike centralized systems, the act of committing is separate from the act of publishing. IOW, you can make commits without having to worry about publishing that to the public, and that allows you to more freely experiment. + A new section "Making Progress" and include commit, merge and rebase there, perhaps? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
