To create a new GIT Repository with files in the current directory and sub-directories (the current directory can be empty).

> git init

Some basic configurations:

> git config --global name = "[your name]"
> git config --global email = "[your email]"
> git config --global core.editor "emacs" 
> git config --global color.ui true

To check the status of the current GIT repository

> git status

To add a file in the current working directory to the staging tree

> git add [filename]

To commit the changes from the staging tree to the repository

> git commit -m "[add a short message on the changes here]"

To view what are the changes in the working directory

> git diff

To view the changes in the staging tree

> git diff --staged

It can be helpful to use the following option for diff to highlight the words that are different

> git diff --color-words

To navigate within the results of git div, use the following keys:

Next line              : return
Next page/ Forward     : f
Previous page/Backward : b
Quit viewing the diff  : q

Toggle line wrap       : -S
Help                   : h

To remove a file from the repository

> git rm [filename]

To commit all files directly to the repository and skip the staging tree, use the following command

> git commit -am "[Commit message]"

To show the last few commits

> git log
> git log --oneline

To show the changes of a specific commit

> git show [full or partial sha code] --color-words

To compare the changes between two commits

> git diff [commit1 shacode]..[commit2 shacode] --color-words
> git diff [commit1 shacode]..HEAD --color-words

To undo changes that have not been staged

> git restore [filename]
or
> git checkout -- [filename]
note that the "--" in the command tell GIT to check out from the current branch.

> git checkout -- .
This undo the changes to all files

To un-stage changes that have been staged

> git restore --staged [filename]
or
> git reset HEAD [filename]

To append changes to the most recent commit

> git commit --amend -m "[Commit message]"

To check out an old version of file in the current branch

> git checkout [shacode] -- [filename]

To revert a previous commit

> git revert [shacode]

To remove untracked files

> git clean -f 
The above command will remove all untracked files
or 
> git clean -n
The above command will only list the files to be removed but does not remove them.

To specify some files to be ignored by Git, create a “.gitignore” file in the directory. The content of the file can be as follows:

• regular expression: e.g. *?[aeiuo][0-9]
• sub-directories: e.g. log/*.txt
• negative expression: e.g. !index.php tells Git not to ignore index.php
• to ignore all files in a directory, ends the line with a trailing slash: e.g. review/images/
• comment: # This is a comment

Github has a good collection of .gitignore template at: https://github.com/github/gitignore

To ignore files globally in all repositories, specify a global .gitignore file as follows:

> git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore_global
