roll back to previous commit git code example

Example 1: roll back last commit in git

git reset --soft HEAD~1

Example 2: how to revert back to previous commit in git

# This will destroy any local modifications.
# Don't do it if you have uncommitted work you want to keep.
git reset --hard 0d1d7fc32

# Alternatively, if there's work to keep:
git stash
git reset --hard 0d1d7fc32
git stash pop
# This saves the modifications, then reapplies that patch after resetting.
# You could get merge conflicts, if you've modified things which were
# changed since the commit you reset to.

Example 3: git revert commit

# Reset the index and working tree to the desired tree
# Ensure you have no uncommitted changes that you want to keep
git reset --hard 56e05fced

# Move the branch pointer back to the previous HEAD
git reset --soft HEAD@{1}

git commit -m "Reverting to the state of the project at f414f31"

Example 4: git roll back to specific commit

//Git Rollback to a specific commit via Mac terminal

//Navigate to project and open git log
cd projectname
git log --oneline

//Locate and checkout the desired commit ID
git checkout abc1234 . 

//(Type q to quit the git log)

//Stage All changes, commit with comment, and push to remote
git add -A
git commit -m "Revert commit: abc1234"
git push

Example 5: revert to commit git

# This will detach your HEAD, that is, leave you with no branch checked out:
git checkout 0d1d7fc32
