Frequently Asked Questions
git merge creates a merge commit that combines two branches, preserving the full history of both. git rebase replays commits from one branch onto another, creating a linear history. Use merge for shared branches and rebase for local cleanup before sharing.
Use git reset --soft HEAD~1 to undo the commit but keep changes staged, git reset HEAD~1 to undo and unstage changes, or git reset --hard HEAD~1 to completely discard the commit and all changes. For shared commits, use git revert instead.
git stash temporarily saves uncommitted changes (both staged and unstaged) so you can work on something else. Use git stash pop to restore the changes or git stash list to see all stashed changes. It is useful for context switching between tasks.
When a merge conflict occurs, Git marks the conflicting files with <<<<<<< , ======= , and >>>>>>> markers. Edit the files to resolve the conflicts, then git add the resolved files and run git commit to complete the merge. Use git mergetool for visual conflict resolution.
