UNDO COMMITS

BEFORE PUSH

Push backwards current HEAD, uncommitting last commit but keeping files

git reset HEAD^

Reset to a past HEAD, removing unpushed changes (hard) or keeping modified files (soft)

git reset HEAD --[hard|soft]

AFTER PUSH

If it's the last commit pushed, push backwards your HEAD and then push the head to ORIGIN

git reset HEAD^
git push origin +HEAD

# Recommended to push only specified branch HEADs:
git push origin +HEAD:<branch_name>

If lots of commits have been pushed there's no way to erase only one commit...

But you can revert the changes using:

git revert <commit_hash>
