Git Without Panic - Undo Anything, Survive Any Merge Conflict, and Understand What Actually Happened #1010804

Most developers do not fear Git because it is hard. They fear it because they lost work to it once, and they never want it to happen again. This book fixes that.

Through seventeen chapters you learn the three trees that explain every confusing Git behaviour, the five undos and when each one is safe, the four Rs — rebase, reset, revert, restore — and the difference between them in one page. You walk through a merge conflict the slow way, recover a lost branch from the reflog, force-push with the safe flag, and hand a working branching model to a team without starting a religious war.
