Get the Git Commit ID via Command Line
I know just enough git to be dangerous. I'm not doing advanced bisecting but I can stash, rebase, and reset with the best of them. One new trick I learned from my boss, Luke Crouch, saves me loads of time: getting the commit ID via command line. For years I would merge a PR, go the project's main page, and copy the commit ID so that I could push code to staging and production. Always seemed like an extra step rather than just making it happen from the terminal. Here's the magical command:
git rev-parse HEAD
Of course you need to update your local repo to remote master, but you do that anyway, right? Hopefully this will become a timesaver the same way it has for me!

Also you can use short version of git hash:
I miss working a Mac, but Windows is working out just great too.
To shorten things further, you can use @ as an abbreviation of HEAD.
