Q: How do I undo my last commit but keep the changes?

`git reset --soft HEAD~1` removes the commit and leaves everything staged, ready to re-commit. Use `git reset HEAD~1` (mixed) to also unstage, or `git reset --hard HEAD~1` to discard the changes entirely.

Q: What is the difference between git reset and git revert?

`git reset` moves your branch pointer back, erasing commits from the branch - right for local, unpushed mistakes. `git revert` adds a new commit that undoes an earlier one, keeping history intact - the safe choice for anything already pushed.

Q: Can I recover commits after git reset --hard?

Usually yes. `git reflog` lists every commit HEAD has pointed at, including the ones you just reset away. Find the lost commit hash in the list and restore it with `git reset --hard ` or `git cherry-pick `.

How to undo things in Git

Almost nothing in Git is truly lost, but the right undo depends on where the mistake lives. Uncommitted changes can be stashed or discarded; a local commit can be reset away as if it never happened; a pushed commit should be reverted - a new commit that reverses it - so shared history is never rewritten.

The pages in this category walk through each case: git reset and its --soft/--mixed/--hard modes, git revert for published history, git stash for work you want back later, and git reflog - the safety net that can recover commits even after a hard reset.
