Git cheat sheets are a dime-a-dozen but I think this one is awfully concise for its scope.
- Visually covers branching (WITH the commands – rebasing the current branch can be confusing for the unfamiliar)
- Covers reflog
- Literally almost identical to how I use git (most sheets are either Too Much or Too Little)

git has 17 million options
proof needed /s
I wonder how many it actually is.

According to tab autocomplete…
$ git
zsh: do you wish to see all 141 possibilities (141 lines)?
But what about the sub options?
$ git clone https://github.com/git/git
$ cd git/builtin
# looking through source, options seem to be declared by OPT
# except for if statements, OPT_END, bug checks, etc.
$ grep -R OPT_ | grep --invert-match --count -E \
"OPT_END|BUG_ON_OPT|if |PARSE_OPT|;$|struct|#define"
1517
Maybe 1500 or so?
edit: Indeed, maybe this number is too low. git show has a huge amount of possibilities on its own, though some may be duplicates and rewords of others.
$ git show --
zsh: do you wish to see all 489 possibilities (163 lines)?
$ man git-show | col -b | grep -E "^ -" --count
98
An attempt at naively parsing the manpages gives a larger number.
$ man $(find /usr/share/man -name "git*") \
| col -b | grep -E "^ -" -c
1849
Numbers all over the place. I dunno.
