Git for Coding Agents

The Git skills that matter when agents commit, branch, recover, and work in parallel.

1. 1Git · beginnerCommitsA commit snapshots a set of changes with a message—your unit of history for review and rollback.
2. 2Git · beginnerBranchesA branch is a movable pointer to a commit—your named line of history for a change.
3. 3Git · beginnerDiffsA diff shows what changed between snapshots—your primary review tool for agent output.
4. 4Git · intermediateRebaseRebase replays commits onto a new base—useful for updating a branch, dangerous on shared history.
5. 5Git · intermediateWorktreesGit worktrees let you check out multiple branches of the same repository into separate directories at once.
6. 6Git · intermediateCherry-pickCherry-pick copies a commit onto your current branch—useful for rescuing a good agent fix from a messy branch.
7. 7Git · intermediateBisectgit bisect binary-searches history to find which commit introduced a bug—vital when agent commits are frequent.
8. 8Git · intermediateRecoveryGit recovery tools—reflog, reset, revert—help undo agent mistakes without panicking.
9. 9Git · advancedParallel agent workspacesRun multiple coding agents safely by giving each a worktree, branch, and clear merge path.
