How to Really Get Git
summary
Covers concrete workflows: configuring git with aliases, colorized status and tab completion, and making PS1 show branch; four confusing undo tools explained with examples: git rebase -i to reorder and squash commits and how to resolve rebase conflicts step by step, git reset --hard and when it permanently loses uncommitted work, git reflog to find lost commits and restore branches, and git revert for single-commit undos; demonstrates automating branch deletion and fetch+rebase across projects using an IPython notebook and notes its CLI limitations.
