Git CLI

This deck aims to teach the top level git commands that are available.

It’s based on the output of git help -a, which categorizes the almost 150 top level commands into 8 groups. Each of these top-level commands has its own man page, with a myriad of other options available.

This deck ignores the options, and only has the top level commands. It’s for devs who already know the fundamentals, and want to improve their familiarity with all of the other things that git can do, that they may not be using on a day-to-day basis.
