Restoring, Reverting & Resetting Changes in Git

Git·1 min read·Jan 1, 2025

In Git, there are essentially three ways to rollback changes made in the working tree, the staging area, or the commit history, which are:

  1. Restoring

  2. Reverting

  3. Resetting

The most common reasons for undoing commits are usually:

  • Files that were included in the commit by mistake.

  • Typos that were introduced in the commit message.
