cheatsheets

This repository contains community-sourced cheatsheets to be used with cheat and similar applications.

Format

Cheatsheets are plain-text files that begin with an optional "front matter" header in YAML format. The header may be used to assign "tags" to a sheet, and to specify the sheet's syntax (bash, python, go, etc).

When possible, cheatsheets should conform to this format:

---
syntax: bash
tags: [ vcs, development ]
---
# To stage all changes in the current directory:
git add --all

# To commit staged changes:
git commit -m <message>

As a guideline, it is preferred to use docopt syntax when specifying parameter placeholders. In edge-cases where that syntax may cause confusion, it is permissible to use placeholder values (foo.txt, example.com, etc.) as necessary.
