The repository that is discussed in Recipe 3-8
Hint
The content of the files shown in
Figure 3-9
is not important.
Solution
Initialize a new repository:
$ cd git-recipes
$ git init 03-08
$ cd 03-08
Create the first file with:
$ echo lorem > lorem.txt
This command creates a new file named
lorem.txt
. The file contains a single
word
lorem
. You can verify it with two commands:
$ ls
$ cat lorem.txt
The first file lists the contents of the current directory (the list will consist of a
single file
lorem.txt
) and the second displays the contents of
lorem.txt
(it will
be
lorem
, of course).
Now create the first revision with:
$ git snapshot lorem
Of course, the repository is clean, and the
$ git status -s
returns empty res-
ults. Now check the reflog with:
$ git reflog
The output of this command is shown in
Listing 3-8
.
