Use git log -p to see changes, or git log -graph -all -oneline -decorate to see a compact tree. I tried this answer How do I undo the most recent local commits in Git? and run git reset HEAD~ but I had the following errorįatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD~': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.

#Git roll back to previous commit how to#
I used to use TFS in the past and any mistake could be easily rollbacked in 1 minute, here I've spent hours trying to look for the right command in the Git book but can't find how to restore the previous version? Is it at least possible to rollback in Git? Unsuccessful attempts to solve this issue When I run git ls-tree only one file is return: $ git ls-tree -r master -name-onlyĪs you can see we've lost everything. 1) In your terminal you can type: git log -oneline This is where it is important you gave yourself descriptive commit messages It will show in your terminal a list of commits along with. When I wanted to check on the server if the commit worked, all the files of the project have vanished! There is just one file: entities.py. + 4a0d8a5.1dc09d9 master -> master (forced update) Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0 However, this option results in all file changes being reverted as well. Use the -hard option to likewise roll back to a previous commit. Git detected the change in entities.py so I thought I was good to go: $ git commit -m "entities.py first commit" Use the -soft option to roll back to a previous commit, while preserving file changes in the working directory and staging area.
Then as I only modified entities.py I added it to the list for commit: $ git add entities.py
Nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track) Here is what I've done (note this is the first I'm connecting to this Git server). I wanted to see if I could commit a change in a file but after doing so all the files of the repo have disappeared.
