Two ways to get a repository
Clone someone else's - git clone
Make your own - git init

git add *.c (add all C source files in the current folder)
git add \*.c (add all C source files in the current folder and all subfolders)
git add . (add everything, be careful)

git commit -a
git commit -m <comment>

git commit --amend

git rm <file> ---- removes <file> from Git and deletes it as well
git rm --cached <file> leaves it hanging in the directory, it's just gone from git

git mv <src> <dst>

git log
git log <path>
git diff
git diff --cached

edit .gitignore --- the files you don't want to save

git branch --- inspect the branches
git checkout branch_a --- switch to branch a
git checkout -b branch_b --- create branch b and switch to b
git merge branch_a
git mergetool
