5/ git worktree (The Parallel Universe)
Work on multiple branches simultaneously without constant switching.

Create additional working directories linked to the same repo. Review a PR while coding a feature. Game changer.

4/ git cherry-pick (The Surgical Strike)
Need just one commit from another branch without merging everything?

Cherry-pick lets you grab specific commits. Works for single commits or ranges. Precision over chaos.

3/ git stash --include-untracked (The Context Switcher)
Need to switch branches but don't want to commit messy work?

Stash everything (even untracked files) with a descriptive message. Pop it back when you return. Zero friction context switching.

2/ git bisect (The Bug Hunter)
When you know something broke but don't know when, bisect does a binary search through your commit history.

Mark a bad commit and a known good one. Git guides you to the exact problematic commit.

1/ git reflog (The Time Machine)
Accidentally deleted a branch? Reset to the wrong commit? Reflog is your safety net.
Find your lost commit hash, then checkout a recovery branch. It's like undo for Git operations.
