Git: the minimum you need to know (sorta like a cheat or nutshell)

For that sort of work, you get exactly 4 commands to replace svn's 3 commands:

  git-clone
  git-commit -a
  git-push
  git-pull --rebase

With git, though, you tend to use it's advanced features a whole lot more. Why? I guess it's partly a cultural thing, partly a "holy crap things happen instantly" thing. It no longer hurts to use advanced features like branching, so you use them.

I agree, I don't use THAT many git commands, but I do have to look up more command line options to be sure I'm not going to blow my own foot off.

I agree, its probably cultural from looking over the shoulder at my git-loving-friends.
