Git credential helper

Cache git credentials in memory for 1 hour
git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout=3600'
this prevents having to re-enter credentials during every interaction when using an HTTPS clone

Git reset

Overwrite local uncommitted changes from origin
git fetch origin
git reset --hard origin/master

...or on a single line:
sudo git fetch origin && sudo git reset --hard origin/master



OPTIONAL: save current branch state before reset:
git commit -a -m "Safe copy"
git branch aSafeCopy

Git squash

Start with git status to check you don't have anything to commit. git reset --soft OLDEST_COMMIT_TO_INCLUDE_IN_SQUASH git commit -m 'Squashed lots of commits' git push --force origin master
This will squash all commits between OLDEST_COMMIT_TO_INCLUDE_IN_SQUASH and the LATEST commit and replace them with a single commit with the comment Squashed lots of commits This is re-writing history so avoid this if anyone else might has cloned or pulled your repo.
