Material Detail

A printable, two-page Git cheat sheet for beginners. It covers 46 commands for recording changes (add, commit, status, diff, log), undoing with restore and reset, syncing with GitHub (push and pull), branches and merges, resolving conflicts, rebase and stash. Rows are grouped by what the student wants to do (for example "Fix or undo a commit") rather than alphabetically, and commands that cannot be undone are marked in red. Diagrams show where each command moves changes between the working tree, the staging area and the repository, and what stash, rebase and cherry-pick do.

It is available as a PDF (A4 landscape), PNG images and a web page, in English and Japanese. It is free with no sign-up and licensed CC BY 4.0, so instructors can hand it out in class or adapt it with attribution.

Each command on the sheet links to the lesson that teaches it, where students can practice it in a simulated terminal in the browser.
