In the talks and trainings that I do, I’ve been wanting a shorter, simpler reference site for people learning Git. The Pro Git book, being a full book, sometimes intimidates people trying to learn Git – I wanted something you could jump to specific commands quickly and was a bit easier to parse piece by piece. So, I give you my pet project from the EuRuKo/Amoocon trip we just got back from:

http://gitref.org

It takes the most used Git commands, groups them into commonly needed tasks and has that reference table available on each page. You can either use it to read about a specific command if you need a refresher or you can read through it as a continuous tutorial.

Hope you find it helpful.
