  From my experience the circles of "complains about git" and "read the manual properly" barely touch But that list of commands isn't really far off for daily/weekly use, I'd only use stash and rebase over that most of the time

For anyone reading this who thinks of Git as a bunch of magic commands, go read all of gittutorial, gittutorial-2 and gitcore-tutorial. That last one is particularly important to read & follow along with. It gives you Git's underlying data model, which makes it much easier to reason about what the UI-level commands are doing. I even used that knowledge once to recover my boss's lost data at a previous job! He had git-added a new file, and then lost it (git-clean/git-reset/something) before committing. I knew from reading that tutorial that git-add is sufficient to add it to git's object store, so we managed to find the right object using file timestamps and git-cat-file to retrieve it. https://git-scm.com/docs/gittutorial https://git-scm.com/docs/gittutorial https://git-scm.com/docs/gittutorial-2 https://git-scm.com/docs/gittutorial-2 https://git-scm.com/docs/gitcore-tutorial https://git-scm.com/docs/gitcore-tutorial
