Get Good Git Ninja, don't Get Got (눈_눈) O=('-'Q)

πŸ”₯ Git as Naruto Jutsu --- Ultimate Cheat Sheet

No Pain No Gain

πŸŒ€ Core Commands

git pull β†’ Banshō Ten'in (Universal Pull)

Pulls all remote changes toward you --- sometimes dragging you into
merge conflicts.

git push β†’ Shinra Tensei (Almighty Push)

Blast your commits to the remote. Errors? Cooldown needed.

git add β†’ Summoning Jutsu

Select which files you want to bring into the next commit.

git commit β†’ Chibaku Tensei (Planetary Devastation)

Seal all your changes into one perfect sphere (commit).

git merge β†’ Edo Tensei

Bring two branches back together. Sometimes peaceful, sometimes chaotic.


πŸ’€ Advanced Git = Rare Jutsu

git push -f β†’ Revival of the Outer Path

Overwrite history. Forbidden technique. Use carefully.

git stash β†’ Flying Thunder God Technique

Teleport your work away instantly and return to a clean slate.

git branch β†’ Shadow Clone Jutsu

Split into multiple versions for experimentation.

git rebase β†’ Infinite Tsukuyomi

Rewrite history like it never happened.

git revert β†’ Izanagi / Izanami

Undo destruction and restore order --- at the cost of one commit eye.

  • Remote repo = Origin of Pain
  • Commit chain = Six Paths
  • Merge conflicts = chakra overload
