  • I want to go to a state in morning , I dont really know what is last commit at that time, So i want a git command to take the repo to previous state using time (like to a state before 3 hours) –  Jul 02 '20 at 18:51

You can checkout to the commit id, after which you have messed things up. That will detach your HEAD. After that, you can create a new branch from there and proceed.

  • ```git checkout `git rev-list -1 --before="Jul 02 2020" master``` This one can detach your head to a commit at some date, but I am not sure about time level precision here. Reference - https://www.endpoint.com/blog/2014/05/19/git-checkout-at-specific-date – himayan Jul 02 '20 at 19:01

you can use command:

git reset --hard branch_name@{"15 minutes ago"}
