Clean Up

Part of the Version Control section of Coddy's Terminal journey. Lesson 55 of 58.

The feature is merged. The branch served its purpose and can be deleted to keep the branch list short.

Once you are confident the merge worked, delete the branch with the safe -d flag (Git checks that the work is already merged before allowing the delete).

Challenge

Beginner

Delete the add-task branch and list the remaining branches.

Every run starts from a fresh copy of the folder, and the whole script in the editor runs again from the top. Nothing is committed for you: the editor starts with the commands of the previous steps (git init -q -b main, the git config lines and the commits so far). Keep those lines in the editor. If you clear them you will see fatal: not a git repository.

Try it yourself

Terminal

git init -q -b main
git config user.name "Todo Dev"
git config user.email "todo@coddy.tech"
git add .
git commit -q -m "Seed todo list"
git switch -q -c add-task
echo "walk the dog" >> todo.txt
git add todo.txt
git commit -q -m "Add walk task"
git switch -q main
echo "This is the project readme." >> readme.md
git add readme.md
git commit -q -m "Expand readme"
git merge -q -m "Merge add-task" add-task
