Book Review: Pragmatic Version Control Using GitBook Review: Pragmatic Version Control Using GitPosted May 12, 2009 0:56 UTC (Tue) by fbriere (subscriber, #4961)In reply to: Book Review: Pragmatic Version Control Using Git by bronson Parent article: Book Review: Pragmatic Version Control Using Git
> Is my experience atypical? Is there any other concept that causes as much trouble for people trying to learn git? (an honest question, not rhetorical at all!)
As much as I love git, it's been over a year, and I still occasionally get confused with checkout vs. reset, path vs. no path, --hard vs. --mixed, etc.
And wait until you realize that git will gladly let you commit to a detached HEAD. Be prepared to fish from the reflog if you checkout another branch before realizing what you did. (This was deemed a "cool" feature on the mailing-list, and is therefore unlikely to go away.)
