I am on Windows 10 Home, and version 7.4.1 32 bit of npp, and have uninstalled and reinstalled.
Options like continue, abort and edit help to simplify the process of how to git revert a commit.When Updating PluginManager I get "Installation of Plugin Manager failed."
The code associated with the reverted Git commit remains stored in the repository's history of changes, which means reverted code is still referenceable if it ever needs to be accessed or reviewed in the future. c/revert example/Īlpha.html beta.html delta.html edison.htmlĭevelopers also need to know that when they git revert a commit, the reverted commit is deleted from their local workspace, but not deleted from the local repository. When we revert said Git commit, the only file removed from our repository is charlie.html. In this git revert example, the third commit added the charlie.html file. The git revert command will undo only the changes associated with a specific commit. If you chose the last outcome, you'd be correct. Or will this git revert example leave four files in the local workspace and remove only the charlie.html file? Will the git revert of commit 4945db2 remove delta.html and edison.html from the local workspace, but leave the other files alone? Will the git revert of commit 4945db2 remove charlie.html, delta.html and edison.html from the local workspace? What do you think would happen if we did a git revert on the third commit with ID 4945db2? This was the git commit that added the charlie.html file. & git commit -m "5th git commit: 5 files"Ī quick directory listing following the initial command batch shows five files in the current folder: /c/revert example/Īlpha.html beta.html charlie.html delta.html edison.htmlĪ call to the git reflog command will show us our current commit history: /c/revert example/ĭ846aa8 : commit: 1st git commit: 1 file How to revert a Git commit & git commit -m "4th git commit: 4 files" & git commit -m "3rd git commit: 3 files" & git commit -m "2nd git commit: 2 files" Each time a new file is created, we add it to the Git index and create a new commit with a meaningful message. With the repository initialized, we'll add five files to the repo.
Initialized empty Git repo in C:/git revert example We will start with a git init command to create a completely clean repository: /c/revert example/ To really understand how to undo Git commits, look at this git revert example. All developers need to do is issue the git revert command and provide the ID of the commit to undo: /c/revert example/ The syntax to revert a Git commit and undo unwanted changes is simple. A new commit is also created to reflect the new state of your repository. When you revert a Git commit, the changes from the targeted commit are removed from your local workspace. If a past commit added a new line of code to a Java file, a git revert on that commit will remove the added line. For example, if a past commit added a file named index.html to the repo, a git revert on that commit will remove the index.html file from the repo. The purpose of the git revert command is to remove all the changes a single commit made to your source code repository.
