Just trying to remove the commit here as I've doubled up and I've correct somethings which should not be here example below. example
Just want to delete the top commit so it doesn't show up, I know how to revert or checkout to a previous but cant remove that top commit.
cheers
this solution i strongly advise to be carefull if you are working with a team
Here is a simple approach in up to 4 steps:
0 - Advise the team you are going to fix the repository
Connect with the team and let them know of the upcoming changes.
1 - Remove the last commit
Assuming your target branch is master:
$ git checkout master # move to the target branch
$ git reset --hard HEAD^ # remove the last commit
$ git push -f # push to fix the remote
At this point you are done if you are working alone.
2 - Fix your teammate's local repositories
On your teammate's:
$ git checkout master # move to the target branch
$ git fetch # update the local references but do not merge
$ git reset --hard origin/master # match the newly fetched remote state
If your teammate had no new commits, you are done at this point and you should be in sync.
3 - Bringing back lost commits
Let's say a teammate had a new and unpublished commit that were lost in this process.
$ git reflog # find the new commit hash
$ git cherry-pick <commit_hash>
