Bash-git-commands

Git commands that are useful for bash scripts.

• Retrieve the hash for the current commit inside whatever branch we are in
• This also works for submodules as long as you are within the submodule directory in question

git rev-parse HEAD

• Change the git remote from http(s) to git@ can be done this way:

sed -i 's|https://URL/|git@URL:|g' ./.git/config

• If you want to update the submodules

sed -i 's|https://URL/|git@URL:|g' ./.gitmodules
git submodule sync --recursive
sed -i 's|https://URL/|git@URL:|g' ./.git/modules/PATH/config
