Abstract: Have you ever deleted your .git folder to start over? Or panicked because you got into a detached head state? Or thought git log was missing commits? In this talk, you’ll compare similar git commands using a git visualization tool. You’ll recognize the benefits and tradeoffs between: rebase vs merge, revert vs reset, bisect vs blame, and more!
