Git Commands & Workflows Guide

Version: 2.0.0 | Price: $12 | Format: Markdown + HTML + config examples

Overview

A practical guide to Git commands and branching workflows for professional development teams. Covers everything from daily Git operations to advanced techniques (cherry-pick, stash, reflog, bisect), branching strategies (GitFlow, trunk-based, GitHub Flow), merge vs rebase decision-making, and CI/CD integration patterns.

This isn't just a command list — it includes workflow diagrams, decision trees, and real-world patterns that help you choose the right approach for your team.

Who Is This For?

Developers who want to go beyond git add/commit/push
Tech leads choosing a branching strategy for their team
DevOps engineers integrating Git workflows with CI/CD pipelines
Anyone who's been burned by a bad merge or lost work
