• Repository
  What is a repository?

 

• Git clone
  Git clone is a command for downloading existing source code from a remote repository (like Github, for example). In other words, Git clone basically makes an identical copy of the latest version of a project in a repository and saves it to your computer.

     git clone <https://name-of-the-repository-link>

   English : GitKraken

• Git status
  The Git status command gives us all the necessary information about the current branch.

     git clone status

• Git add
  When we create, modify or delete a file, these changes will happen in our local and won't be included in the next commit (unless we change the configurations). We need to use the git add command to include the changes of a file(s) into our next commit.

     git add .

   Bangli: Anisul Islam

• Git commit
  This is maybe the most-used command of Git. Once we reach a certain point in development, we want to save our changes (maybe after a specific task or issue).

     git commit -m "write your meaningfull message"

   Bangla: Anisul Islam

• Git pull
  The git pull command is used to get updates from the remote repo.

     git pull <remote>

   Bangla : Anisul Islam

• Git push
  After committing your changes, the next thing you want to do is send your changes to the remote server. Git push uploads your commits to the remote repository.

     git push <remote> <branch-name>

   Bangla: Anisum Islam

• Git revert
  The git revert command is used for undoing changes to a repository's commit history.

     git revert main

• Git branch
  Branches are highly important in the git world. By using branches, several developers are able to work in parallel on the same project simultaneously.

     git branch <branch-name>

   English : The Net Ninja    Bangali : Anisul Islam

• Git checkout
  This is also one of the most used Git commands. To work in a branch, first you need to switch to it. We use git checkout mostly for switching from one branch to another. We can also use it for checking out files and commits.

     git checkout <name-of-your-branch>

   English : Becoming a Data Scientist

• Git merge
  When you've completed development in your branch and everything works fine, the final step is merging the branch with the parent branch (dev or master). This is done with the git merge command.

     git merge <branch-name>

   English : The Net Ninja    Bangali : Anisul Islam

• Fork
  A fork is a copy of a repository. Forking a repository allows you to freely experiment with changes without affecting the original project.

   English The net Ninja    Bangali Anisul Islam

• Pull Request
  Pull requests let you tell others about changes you've pushed to a branch in a repository on GitHub. Once a pull request is opened, you can discuss and review the potential changes with collaborators and add follow-up commits before your changes are merged into the base branch.
