This week we are highlighting advanced Git commands that help you fix mistakes, recover lost work, and collaborate like a pro.

The Scoop

The 5 Git Commands That Separate Juniors from Pros

git reflog
Your secret undo button. Reflog tracks every move in your repository, even ones you thought were gone. It can save you from disasters when you reset or delete branches.

git stash
Clean up without losing work. Stash lets you store unfinished changes so you can switch branches or pull updates without breaking your flow.

git cherry pick
Pull a single commit from another branch and apply it where you need it. This command keeps your history clean and helps when fixing production bugs fast.

git bisect
Find the exact commit that introduced a bug. Git automatically checks out commits between a good and bad state until the problem commit is revealed.

git blame
Not for assigning guilt, but for tracing the history of a line. It tells you who changed what and when, so you can debug confidently.

Skills

Level Up Your Git Workflow

If you want to move from junior to pro, focus on clarity and control:

• Use branches deliberately keep features isolated and commits meaningful

• Write clear messages treat every commit like documentation

• Review before pushing inspect diffs and resolve conflicts early

The best developers are the ones who recover fast from mistakes. Git gives you every tool to do that. The pros just know where to look.

That’s it for today.
