Do you need a refresher on git? Go through Codecademy's git course.
Using your terminal/command line, get inside the folder where your project files are kept:
cd /path/to/my/codebase.
→ You cannot do this simply by opening the folder normally, you must do this with the command line/terminal.
→ Do you need a refresher on using your command line/terminal? I've compiled my favorite resources here.
Check if git is already initialized: git status
Removing the last commit
To remove the last commit from git, you can simply run git reset --hard HEAD^ If you are removing multiple commits from the top, you can run git reset --hard HEAD~2 to remove the last two commits. You can increase the number to remove even more commits.
If you want to "uncommit" the commits, but keep the changes around for reworking, remove the "--hard": git reset HEAD^ which will evict the commits from the branch and from the index, but leave the working tree around.
If you want to save the commits on a new branch name, then run git branch newbranchname before doing the git reset.
