git and github - how do I reset the files to add in git add --all

Question

I am receiving error message from github as follows;

root@staging:/var/www/example.com/app_dir# git push

I have deleted the extra large files. I have tried git reset, however, same error occurs. How can I redo the git add without the large files?

First of all, it's a warning, not an error :) See here for a solution: https://stackoverflow.com/a/33363083/3842598 — Christian, Nov 06 '22 at 00:51
@Christian, I have already removed the large files. There is no caching. I still get the error. — spreaderman, Nov 06 '22 at 00:57
I tried git reset but still same error. I simply just wish to remove the files mentioned in git add. No easy way? If I could remove them I could redo, i could re-commit. — spreaderman, Nov 06 '22 at 01:14
