The above command will revert the E’ commit. To do this, you have to revert the ‘revert commit‘. Because it is been reverted in E’.Īssume after sometimes, you have made some changes to branch B and now you are fine with merging that branch. In the above example, you can’t merge branch B to branch A again. You have to revert the ‘revert commit‘ if you need to merge back the branch.
Reverting a merge commit means you are inverting all the changes from the merge branch so that you can’t merge the branch again. So the git history will be like A - B - C - E - F - E' (branch A) This will revert all commits from the merge branch. You have to mention the parent branch number. And if you run git revert E then git will throw a warning. All commits that came after this version are effectively undone your project is exactly as it was at that point in time. In this above case, E is the merge commit. The fastest way to restore an old version is to use the 'reset' command: git reset -hard 0ad5a7a6 This will rewind your HEAD branch to the specified version. So when you are reverting a merge commit you have to specify whether you need to revert changes of the parent-A branch or the parent-B branch. The parent-B branch is merged into the parent-A branch. When there is a merge there are two branches included. Reverting a merge commit is somewhat tricky. In this case, the git history is very clean and everyone reading the git history will understand that the particular commit has reverted for some reason. Given one or more existing commits, revert the changes that the related patches introduce, and record some new commits that record them. This is one of the advantages of git revert. And changes made by E is no longer present in the working directory. But you can see that in the git history commit E is also present. So you need to pass the commit you need to revert.Īnd after reverting E the commit history will be changed as below A - B - C - D - E - E'Į’ is the reverted commit. Git revert will always take a commit hash. Whats the difference between git reset and git revert git reset takes you back to the previous state without creating a new commit, while git revert creates a. You have decided to go with the git revert. So you have decided to undo the changes that E did. It doesnt matter if its the last commit or a. Otherwise, youll have to go through all the changes manually. But unlike other undo commands, git revert will introduce a new commit that has the inverted changes.įor example, consider the below git history A - B - C - D - EĪssume, E is the bad commit and you no longer need those changes. In this case, well revert the whole commit.
