I was using Git to backup “panelDrive.” This is located at c:\users\dan\git. Issuing “git remote -v” will show that these are connected to remote repository "ssh://git@stopstogo.com/home/git/repo.git".

• git branch “branch name” - Create new branch in local repository
• git checkout “branch name” - Local content becomes this branch

• First checkout “master”, then git merge “branch name”

Tagging in Git refers to creating specific points in history for your repository/data.

1. To Mark release points for your code/data (stable release point)
2. To create historic restore points

• Checkout the branch where you want to create the tag
  • git checkout “branch name”
• Create tag with some name
  • git tag “Version 1.0” - Lightweight tag
  • git tag -a “v1.1” -m “tag for release version 1.1” - Stored as complete object
  • git show v1.0
  • git tag -l “v1.*”
• Push tags to remote
  • GitHub shows “releases” for tags“
  • git push origin v1.0
  • git push –tags - push all tags
  • git tag –delete v1.0
  • git push origin -d v1.0 - delete this tag from remote
• Checkout tags in git
  • We cannot checkout tags in git
  • We can create a branch from a tag and checkout the branch
  • git checkout -b “branch name” “tag name”
• Create a tag from some past commit
  • git tag “tag name” “reference of commit” - the checksum or just a part of it.
  • git push –tags - pushes all tags to remote repository
