Git

  • Never git push to the default branch (usually main or master) unless I explicitly instruct you to do so.
  • Always use a topic branch with a few brief word hyphenated name

Commit Messages

For multi-line commit messages:

  • Simple (subject + body): Use multiple -m flags. Each -m creates a separate paragraph:
    git commit -m "Subject line" -m "Body paragraph here."
  • Complex: Use a heredoc to pass the message:
    git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
Subject line

Body paragraph here.
EOF
)"
