Git reset

  • Mixed reset (default): discard untracked files, but the changed files are preserved but not marked for commit.
  • Hard reset: Resets the index and working tree. Any changes to tracked files in the working tree since commit are discarded.
  • Soft reset: Does not touch the index file or the working tree at all (but resets the head to commit)
git reset --hard <SHA>   # Reset git history to a specific commit

git reset HEAD~          # Reset state to the previous commit (~)
