This guide walks through everything QuickTime Player can do as an editor, when it’s the right tool, and when you should reach for something more powerful.

git add .
Choose which parts of a file to stage:

git add -p

git reset
Check what you added:

git status
Make Commits
Make a commit (and open text editor to write message):

git commit
Make a commit:

git commit -m 'message'
Commit all unstaged changes:

git commit -am 'message'
Move Between Branches
Switch branches:

git switch <name>
OR
git checkout <name>
Create a branch:

git switch -c <name>
OR
git checkout -b <name>
List branches:

git branch
List branches by most recently committed to:

git branch --sort=-committerdate
Delete a branch:

git branch -d <name>
Force delete a branch:

git branch -D <name>
Diff Staged/Unstaged Changes
Diff all staged and unstaged changes:

git diff HEAD
Diff just staged changes:

git diff --staged
Diff just unstaged changes:

git diff
Diff Commits
Show diff between a commit and its parent:

git show <commit>
Diff two commits:

git diff <commit> <commit>
Diff one file since a commit:

git diff <commit> <file>
Show a summary of a diff:

git diff <commit> --stat
git show <commit> --stat
Ways to refer to a commit
Every time we say <commit>, you can use any of these:

a branch
main
a tag
v0.1
a commit ID
3e887ab
a remote branch
origin/main
current commit
HEAD
3 commits ago
HEAD^^^ or HEAD~3
Discard Your Changes
Delete unstaged changes to one file:

git restore <file>
OR
git checkout <file>
Delete all staged and unstaged changes to one file:

git restore --staged --worktree <file>
OR
git checkout HEAD <file>
Delete all staged and unstaged changes:

git reset --hard
Delete untracked files:

git clean
'Stash' all staged and unstaged changes:

git stash
Edit History
"Undo" the most recent commit (keep your working directory the same):

git reset HEAD^
Squash the last 5 commits into one:

git rebase -i HEAD~6
Then change "pick" to "fixup" for any commit you want to combine with the previous one
Undo a failed rebase:

git reflog BRANCHNAME
Then manually find the right commit ID in the reflog, then run:
git reset --hard <commit>
Change a commit message (or add a file you forgot):

git commit --amend
Code Archaeology
Look at a branch's history:

git log main
git log --graph main
git log --oneline
Show every commit that modified a file:

git log <file>
Show every commit that modified a file, including before it was renamed:

git log --follow <file>
Find every commit that added or removed some text:

git log -G banana
Show who last changed each line of a file:

git blame <file>

Combine with rebase:

git switch banana
git rebase main
Before:

After:

Combine with merge:

git switch main
git merge banana
Before:

After:

Combine with squash merge:

git switch main
git merge --squash banana
git commit
Before:

After:

Bring a branch up to date with another branch (aka "fast-forward merge"):

git switch main
git merge banana
Before:

After:

Copy one commit onto the current branch:

git cherry-pick <commit>
Before:

After:

Restore an Old File
Get the version of a file from another commit:

git checkout <commit> <file>
OR
git restore <file> --source <commit>
Add a Remote
git remote add <name> <url>
Push Your Changes
Push the main branch to the remote origin:

git push origin main
Push the current branch to its remote "tracking branch":

git push
Push a branch that you've never pushed before:

git push -u origin <name>
Force push:

git push --force-with-lease
Push tags:

git push --tags
Pull Changes
Fetch changes (but don't change any of your local branches):

git fetch origin main
Fetch changes and then rebase your current branch:

git pull --rebase
Fetch changes and then merge them into your current branch:

git pull origin main

git pull

Update Content

Sun, 19 Apr 2026 13:39:11 -0400

The general method for adding or updating content in Hugo revolves around its CLI and local development server, typically using Markdown files organized within a content/ directory. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

1. Adding New Content

To add a new page or post, use the hugo new command from your project’s root directory. This command automatically populates the file with “front matter” (metadata) based on your site’s archetypes. [3, 6]
