Re: Frequent code checkpointing with git

Have you tried using git-rebase -i ? You need to give it the commit id of the last commit before your string of changes. You can then tell it to combine all your commits into one (or more).

# *hack*
git commit -a -m"one"
# *hack*
git commit -a -m"two"
git rebase -i HEAD~2
# bring us an editor, select the "one" and "two" as squash, save, exit.
git log

An alternative workflow is to use git commit --amend. But this does not keep your micro history around. It just puts any recent changages into the last commit.

# *hack*
git commit -a -m"I am working on blah"
# *hack*
git commit --amend
...

Re: My Git Workflow

I love the diagrams!

One unmentioned commit management feature is `git commit --amend` which would allow you to update the last commit with new edits. If you're familiar with `git rebase -i` squashing, then this is like squashing your index into the last commit. You could also amend with the working files by using `git commit --amend -a` or providing specific files on the command line.

I think both `git stash` and `git commit --amend` have their uses, and I use them both in my workflow.

Finally, I would also like to mention that `git add -i` has a hidden feature of being able to stage individual lines of change, not complete files. If there is some debug code in your file, you can commit everything else. You can also use `git gui` to stage individual "hunks" (blocks of a diff) for commit.

I rooted my Rogers Dream a bit differently. I used the flashrec program, which installs the CM 1.4 recovery image even on the Rogers Dream. My writeup is here...
