I made changes to a local file in a Branch and did a commit but didn't push to the origin. How can I get the original file back?

Here's what I have:

MacBook:Ja.git alan$ git status
On branch alan-1
Your branch is ahead of 'origin/alan-1' by 1 commit.
  (use "git push" to publish your local commits)

nothing to commit, working tree clean

Is there anything I can do on the command line or with the Visual Studio options that will allow me to get back to the last time I pushed to the origin branch so the file I changed before I did the commit would be restored to the way it was?

use git reset --soft HEAD~1 – IMParasharG Feb 20 '19 at 14:04
OR you can check commit hash by git log and then do git reset – IMParasharG Feb 20 '19 at 14:11
