To undo the most recent local commits in Git, you can use the git reset command.
The git reset command allows you to undo commits, moving the branch pointer to a previous commit and destroying any commits in the process. The commits are not deleted permanently, but they are removed from the branch and are no longer visible in the branch’s history.
To undo the most recent commit, you can use the git reset command with the HEAD~1 option, which specifies the commit immediately before the current commit (HEAD). This will undo the most recent commit and move the branch pointer to the previous commit.
git reset HEAD~1If you want to undo multiple commits, you can specify the number of commits to undo with the HEAD~n option, where n is the number of commits to undo. For example, to undo the two most recent commits, you can use the following command:
git reset HEAD~2It’s important to note that the git reset command is a destructive operation and it cannot be undone. The commits that are reset are not deleted permanently, but they are removed from the branch’s history and are not visible in the branch anymore.
If you want to undo local commits and keep the changes made in those commits, you can use the git revert command instead. The git revert command undoes commits by creating new commits that reverse the changes made in the previous commits. This allows you to undo commits while keeping the changes made in those commits.
