In this episode, host Brian Okken and guest Adam Johnson explore essential Git features, highlighted by Adam's updated book, "Boost Your Git DX."
Key topics include
- "cherry picking" for selective commits
- "git stash" for managing in-progress work
- "git diff", and specifically its `--name-only` flag, which provides a streamlined method for developers to identify which files have changed, which can be used to determine which tests need to be run
- "git bisect" for efficiently pinpointing bugs.
This conversation offers valuable strategies for developers at any skill level to enhance their Git proficiency and optimize their coding workflows.
