.gitignore
# is a file including names of stuff that you don"t want to be staged or tracked.
# You usually keep your local files like database, media, etc here.
# You can find good resources online about ignoring specific files in your project files.
# .gitignore is also get ignored
.git
# is a hidden directory in repo directory including git files. It is created after "git init".
# Some useful notes:
# Better Commit messages:
# Key to Effective Debugging
# For the commit message to help in debugging effectively, ensure that it is short and use an imperative
# mood (spoken or written as if giving a command or instruction) when constructing them.
# Also use feature tense for commit messages.
# The first word in your commit message should be one of these:
# Add
# Create
# Refactor
# Fix
# Release
# Document
# Modify
# Update
# Remove
# Delete etc...
# About resetting:
# Use git revert instead of git reset in shared repositories
# git revert creates a new commit that introduces the opposite changes from the specified commit.
# Revert does not change history the original commit stays in the repository
# Difference between ~ and ^ in git:
# > ^ or ^n
# >no args: == ^1: the first parent commit
# >n: the nth parent commit
# > ~ or ~n
# >no args: == ~1: the first commit back, following 1st parent
# >n: number of commits back, following only 1st parent
# note: ^ and ~ can be combined
