Git Notes

Repositories

• Clone a remote repository to a local repository:

  git clone <remote-repository-url> <optional-dir>
  
  git clone https://github.com/Ross-Thanscheidt/Notes.git
  cd Notes
  
  git clone https://github.com/Ross-Thanscheidt/Example.git MyExample
  cd MyExample

• Clone a remote repository using GitHub CLI:

  gh repo list
  gh repo clone Notes
  cd Notes

• Get URL of the remote repository in the local repository:

  git remote get-url origin

• Update local repository from remote repository

  • Safe - merge commits from remote repository with local master branch

    git fetch
    git rebase

  • Aggressive - fetch and rebase without reviewing downloaded changes

    git pull
