Very good, I like the analogy :)

Don’t forget, `git stash` will not stash any untracked files. If you want to clear up the untracked files in your working directory you can add the -u switch:

`git stash -u`

Really liked this article. Thanks for posting!

Bisect is also crazy handy. One of the best troubleshooting commands in git.

Lovely overview! Thank you. One of the discoveries that changed my life (or at least I pulled a lot of less hairs off my head) was interacting rebasing with squashing and fixing up commits.

It allows us to clean up the history of the (feature) branch before merging it into the master branch.

Makes us a lot more confident while developing knowning the history is not final.

Thanks for helping me deal with my fear of a detached head!

I don’t use git enough so that I don’t need to keep on looking stuff up. I find analogies like this helpful as then I can picture what’s going on, rather than just running a command that looks like it does what I want.

Very helpful, now I just wish there were some analogies in the documentation!
