Articles about git.
This is an interesting one I learned while setting up a /draft-gitlab-release skill. Since I manually bump version numbers in this project, it's important to compare the live version number first, so I don't accidentally double-bump the version number on development.
Why would you ever want to stash a specific file, as opposed to any and all altered files, you ask? In an ideal world, you probably wouldn't need to. In this specific case, I was attempting to stash files I had modified without stashing other files which had been bulk-edited by a script. In other words, I wished to throw away most of my changes and keep one or two specific changes after a git merge.
No explaning here. I've got a branch in my repo, want to get rid of it.
Ach! I over-committed! (heh, heh, joke, joke.)
This was frustrating. I couldn't track changes to multiple files buried in a folder!
Ugh. So I saw a bug logged today due to a missing piece of code. What?! That was there yesterday! Turns out I had deleted the file by accident and not realized it.
