git add with sophictication

I found this git command that I have been looking for forever.
I used to use it then I forgot it and have been googling for it ever since/.

The perfect pairing to git add -p, drum roll please...

git add . -N && git add -p

The -N flag means is short for --intent-to-add

git add . -N will stage an empty file representing your newly added file.
When git add --patch is called

Git will do the normal patch procedure over your newly created file's changes.

If no changes are patched in,
the empty file will not be included in your commit.

Always be sure to check your status!

Rails Cheat Sheet: Create Models, Tables and Migrations

Create a new table in Rails

rails g model Supplier name:string
rails g model Product name:string:index sku:string{10}:uniq count:integer description:text supplier:references popularity:float 'price:decimal{10,2}' available:boolean availableSince:datetime image:binary

Resulting migrations:

class CreateSuppliers < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    create_table :suppliers do |t|
      t.string :name

      t.timestamps null: false
    end
  end
end

class CreateProducts < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    create_table :products do |t|
      t.string :name
      t.string :sku, limit: 10
      t.integer :count
      t.text :description
      t.references :supplier, index: true, foreign_key: true
      t.float :popularity
      t.decimal :price, precision: 10, scale: 2
      t.boolean :available
      t.datetime :availableSince
      t.binary :image

      t.timestamps null: false
    end
    add_index :products, :name
    add_index :products, :sku, unique: true
  end
end
