Linux Git Commands

• Push local modification to server

git add deep learning/paper/reinforcement
git commit -m "xxxxxx"
git push -u origin master

• Solution to ERROR: “fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly”

git config http.postBuffer 524288000
git config --global http.postBuffer 157286400

• Undo last two commits which not pushed yet (NOTE: this will also delete relevant local files)

git reset --hard HEAD~2

• Undo commit, also roll-back codes to previous commit

git reset --hard commit_id

• Undo commit, but won’t undo local codes modification (Can re-commit local changes by git commit):

git reset HEAD~

or:

git reset HEAD to-undo-file

or:

git reset commit_id

• Only view how many non-pushed commits

git status

• Only view comments/descriptions of non-pushed commits

git cherry -v

• View detailed informations of non-pushed commits

git log master ^origin/master

• Find id of last commit

git log

• Clone a particular version of commit-id

After git clone the newest repo:

git checkout [commit-id]

• Convert that repo to my forked repo (stay tuned..)

• Clone a specific Git branch

git clone -b

Example:

git clone -b my-branch https://git@github.com/username/myproject.git

Clone a Fast R-CNN COCO branch:

git clone --recursive -b coco https://github.com/rbgirshick/fast-rcnn.git

• Save git username/password on Git for Windows

Create .git-credentials to save git username/password:

https://username:password@github.com 

git config --global credential.helper store

Re-run git bash.

• One way to address SSL certificate problem

SSL certificate problem:

$ git clone https://github.com/BVLC/caffe.git
Cloning into 'caffe'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/BVLC/caffe.git/': SSL certificate problem: certificate is not yet valid

The easiest way is to disable the SSL CERT verification (This will prevent CURL to verity the HTTPS certification):

git config --global http.sslVerify false

For one repository only:

git config http.sslVerify falseSoluton

Keeping a brach of a forked repo up-to-date

git clone https://github.com/handong1587/caffe_cuhk
cd caffe_cuhk
git checkout master-with-comment
git remote add upstream https://github.com/BVLC/caffe
git fetch upstream
git pull upstream master

Then do some conflicts merging jobs…

Finally:

git push

-ref: https://gist.github.com/CristinaSolana/1885435

Find and restore a deleted file from commit history

git checkout $commit~1 filename
