🔹 How to remember Git & GitHub commands

-Practice regularly → the more you use them, the easier they stick.

-Start with the essentials → clone, add, commit, push, pull, branch, merge. Learn advanced ones later.

-Use cheat sheets → keep a small reference handy until it becomes muscle memory.

-Build small projects → applying commands in real situations helps a lot.

-Don’t stress about forgetting → even experienced devs check commands sometimes.

repetition + real use is the best memory hack. ♥️

Forgetting Git/GitHub commands is super common — even experienced devs do it. Here’s how you can remember them better:

Practice daily, even small tasks → Repetition sticks better than reading cheat sheets.

Use a cheat sheet → Keep one handy (GitHub has an official Git cheat sheet
).

Learn commands in context → Instead of memorizing, focus on why and when you use each command.

Alias common commands → E.g., git co → git checkout, git br → git branch to type less and remember more.

Interactive tutorials → Try learngitbranching.js.org
— it’s visual and helps retain commands.

Write notes → Maintain a small “personal Git guide” with the commands you actually use most.

Automate repetitive tasks → Scripts or GitHub Actions reduce the need to memorize every single command.

The key: practice in real projects — the commands will naturally stick over time.

• Just use Git every day on small projects.
• Do regular operations like saving your work, updating from GitHub, and sharing your changes.
• Over time, the commands stick naturally in your memory without memorizing them.

It’s completely normal to forget Git commands — nobody memorizes everything. Instead, focus on practice + references:

1. Use Git Cheat Sheets

Download the official GitHub Git Cheat Sheet.

Keep it pinned on your desktop or printed near your workspace.

2. Practice with Real Projects

The more you use Git daily (commits, branches, PRs), the more natural commands will become.

Start small repos just to practice branching, merging, and rebasing.

3. Leverage Git Help & Shortcuts

Run git help or git --help for quick reminders.

Use git status frequently — it guides your next steps.

4. Create Your Own Notes / Alias

Maintain a personal git-commands.md file with the commands you often forget.

Use Git aliases (shortcuts), e.g. git co for git checkout.

5. Interactive Tools

Tools like GitKraken, SourceTree, or VS Code’s Git panel help you learn visually.

Over time, you’ll internalize the commands behind the clicks.

6. Repetition Over Memorization

You don’t need to remember every command at once.

Focus on the core workflow: clone → branch → add → commit → push → PR.

Gradually learn advanced commands as you need them.

In short: Don’t try to memorize all Git commands — instead, practice consistently, keep a cheat sheet, and use git help. With regular usage, the commands will stick naturally.
