During the past couple of months I’ve kept a log of all my git usage. Trying to get a list of all the typical stuff one needs to do. This post list these with git commands and some explanation of the process. I won’t explain all options, since git someCommand --help will show you all there is to know.

To my english readers:
Danish this time – sorry. I’ll translate the linked article soon.
I got this question recently:
Why do you use git when we have svn already?
The easy and smart-xxxx answer is “Because I can..” – but that’s not acurate. So if you’ll allow me – I’ll just get on top of my soap-box …
When working with JDeveloper you’ll have the option of use “Version Application” to drop everything into a Subversion repository.
BUT! … if you, like me, would rather use the command line for your version control stuff (and lots of other stuff). Then that … why not.
In an earlier post I wrote about how to install git from source.
I’ve found an easier way. Add the EPEL repository to YUM.
In this post I’ll tell you how to install git onto Oracle Linux. It’s a standard install from source. But since I always have to lookup how this is done – I’ll drop it here for future reference.
For those of you who don’t like installs from source: don’t worry – it’s easy.
edit: I’ve found an easier way. Described here
