Standardizes the main branch before push.

git remote add origin <url>low

Connects the main remote repository.

git remote add origin https://github.com/org/repo.git

git push -u origin mainlow

Publishes the base branch and sets upstream.

Feature flow

Open working branch, update base, and integrate back with clarity.

git switch -c feature/<tema>low

Creates and switches to the feature branch.

git switch -c feature/login

git add .low

Updates staging with current progress.

git commit -m "feat: ..."low

Records a work step with context.

git fetch originlow

Updates remote references before integration.

git switch mainlow

Returns to the integration base.

git merge feature/<tema>medium

Integrates the feature branch into the base.

Safe undo

Choose between restore, reset, and revert without accidentally destroying work.

git restore <arquivo>medium

Discards uncommitted local change in a file.

git restore src/app/page.tsx

git restore --staged <arquivo>low

Removes file from staging without losing local edit.

git reset --soft HEAD~1medium

Goes back one commit keeping everything in staging.

git reset --mixed HEAD~1medium

Goes back one commit and returns changes to working tree.

git revert <hash>low

Creates a safe inverse commit for shared history.

Shelve work in progress

Get the dirty work out of the way to switch branches, then bring it back.

git stash push -m "<motivo>"low

Shelves uncommitted changes with a label.

git stash push -m "meio da tela de login"

git stash push -ulow

Also includes files that are not tracked yet.

git stash listlow

Lists what is shelved, newest first.

git stash show -p stash@{0}low

Shows the stash diff before applying it.

git stash popmedium

Brings the newest stash back and removes it from the stack.

git stash apply stash@{1}medium

Applies a specific stash and KEEPS it on the stack.

git stash drop stash@{0}high

Drops a stash — there is no undo after this.

Quick decision

Undo

Use restore for local files, revert for shared history, and reflog before aggressive reset.

Integration

Prefer merge when you want to preserve branching and rebase when you want to linearize before final merge.

Scale

Use worktree for parallel branches and sparse-checkout when the monorepo is too large for the current task.

Export

Recovery and selective delivery

Rebase with exit route, reflog for rescue, and cherry-pick for hotfix or backport without full merge.

Exportable runbook

Export the filtered track to CSV for technical inventory or TXT for shareable squad playbook.

Placeholders like <tema>, <arquivo>, <hash>, and <url> must be replaced before execution.
