How do I undo the last commit without losing changes?

[sherqo]

just committed but realized I need to edit some files before finalizing. How can I undo the last commit but keep my changes in the files?

Just use this command in your terminal:

git reset --soft HEAD~1 

NOTES:
--soft keeps your changes staged (ready to commit again).
HEAD~1 means “the last commit.” and HEAD~2 means the commit before the last one

You can undo the last commit but keep your changes staged with:

git reset --soft HEAD~1

Or keep changes unstaged (in working directory):

git reset --mixed HEAD~1

You can

If you only want to undo changes for one file (not the whole commit), you can restore that file from the previous commit:

git restore --source=HEAD~1 path/to/file

Then commit it:

git add path/to/file
git commit -m "Revert changes for this file
