Hi everyone,
git-filter-repo now has two cheat sheets:
    filter-branch => filter-repo
    bfg repo cleaner => filter-repo

Each lists all the commands from the manual of the command on the left, and shows the equivalent commands to solve the same problem using filter-repo. Links to both cheat sheets can be found at the end of each tools' section at

https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo#why-filter-repo-instead-of-other-alternatives

Each cheat sheet is actually half of a bigger guide that also provides an overview of high level differences between the tools (design structure, defaults, etc.); just scroll up from each cheat sheet to see the additional info in the guide.

I hope folks find these useful, Elijah
