Git Commands equivalent fo Clearcase commands?

Question

Can anyone help me to know the Git commands equivalent of clearcase commands?

Answer 1

I have documented extensively the differences between Git and ClearCase by the past (file-based vs repo-based, centralized vs. distributed)

This is not about dynamic view and MVFS, since Git is (slowly) incorporating the equivalent, VFS for Git (formely known as GVFS).

This is about:

• what is checked out or committed (selection of files in ClearCase from one or several Vobs), vs. a full repository in Git (even though you now have partial or narrow clone in Git)
• the unit of storage.
  That is the more important criteria to consider when migrating ClearCase Vobs to Git repositories: a possible multiple Terabytes Vobs, vs a Git repository whose size should remain "reasonable".
  Even the Microsoft Windows "largest repository in the planet" is less than 0.5 TB.

If you were using ClearCase UCM, then the relevant unit of work is an UCM component, which is akin to a Git repository:

ct mkview/co <==> git clone/checkout 
ct mkbl      <==> git tag
ct ci        <==> git commit+git push
ct deliver   <==> git merge
ct rebase    <==> git rebase (to an extent)
