Useful Commands

Delete all empty folders

find . -empty -type d -delete

GIT

git rm --cached .

If you want to remove a specific file, replace the dot with the file path. Delete all git history without resetting repo.

Deleting the .git folder may cause problems in your git repository. If you want to delete all your commit history but keep the code in its current state, it is very safe to do it as in the following:

Checkout

git checkout --orphan latest_branch

Add all the files

git add -A

Commit the changes

git commit -am "commit message"

Delete the branch

git branch -D main

Rename the current branch to main

git branch -m main

Finally, force update your repository

git push -f origin main

Create a temp folder locally, and start a new empty in the destination service. Then clone the repo from source as mirror, and push the mirror to destination.

git clone --mirror <source-repo-url>
cd <source-repo-name>
git push --mirror  <dest-repo-url>

The mirror in not readable so it can be deleted after pushing.

DD-WRT SSH Access

You need to generate keys and use the RSA algorithm.

ssh-keygen -t rsa

Open the public key and manually copy-paste it in the “Authorized Keys” under Services, SSH, in DD-WRT.

When logging in, use root.
