git reset undo-commit remove-commit git-reset-soft git-reset-hard unstage-changes discard-commit
To undo your last commit without affecting your working directory or staged changes (i.e., to keep your changes but remove the commit), you can use the following command:
git reset --soft HEAD~1
Explanation
HEAD~1
refers to the previous commit.--soft
keeps your changes in the staging area so you can recommit them if needed.
If You Want to Remove the Commit and Unstage Changes
If you want to undo the commit and also unstage the changes (but keep them in your working directory), use:
git reset HEAD~1
If You Want to Completely Discard the Commit and Changes
If you want to discard both the commit and the changes (be careful with this as it cannot be undone), use:
git reset --hard HEAD~1
These commands will remove the last commit, and since you haven’t pushed it yet, there won’t be any issues with the remote repository.
