Common git commands to use

Here are a common git commands that I end up using pretty frequently. Will keep on updating this list

1. List all remote branches

Simplest is git branch -a Shows all remote and local branches. git branch -r Will show all remote branches only.
Another way is to use git remote feature like:
git remote show origin This shows all branches on remote and how they corelate with local repo.
git ls-remote Will meticulously list all branches and tags.

2. Just view modified files between 2 branches (without diff)

git diff --name-status master..branch Will list out only filenames git diff master..branch without –name-status will show whole diff.

3. git remote -v Displays url of remote repo from where local git was pulled

Alternatively use git remote show origin or git config --get remote.origin.url

4. Viewing Unpushed Git Commits

git log origin/master..HEAD
To view diffs: git diff origin/master..HEAD
Another way: git log @{u}..
