Undo the Last Commit in Git - Step by Step Process ?

This article covers how to use the git reset command to undo the last commit in Git. 


To Undo the Last Commit:

The "reset" command is your best friend:

$ git reset --soft HEAD~1

Reset will rewind your current HEAD branch to the specified revision. Here, our goal is to return to the one before the current revision - effectively making our last commit undone.


To Undo Last Commit with revert:

In order to revert the last Git commit, use the "git revert" and specify the commit to be reverted which is "HEAD" for the last commit of your history.

$ git revert HEAD

The "git revert" command is slightly different from the "git reset" command because it will record a new commit with the changes introduced by reverting the last commit.

As a consequence, you will have to commit the changes again for the files to be reverted and for the commit to be undone.
