Tips for Intermediate Git Users

  This is above-average for Git how-to blog posts. It covers a bunch of atomic little points, so you can just skip over the ones you already know. I gleaned a couple new tricks from it. Speaking of which, if you're using Emacs and doing this: editing the file, removing the <<<<, ====, >>>> markers and the keeping the code you want to store ... consider using SMerge minor mode. I've developed a strong bias against merge GUIs over the years, but this one is very minimal -- which turns out to be a good thing -- and doesn't mess me up.

    You can also run 'git mergetool' and choose the 'emerge' option, which is also emacs based but I believe can take the common ancestor of the merge into account to help you out as well.
