I need to revert a wrong git commit --amend -m

  1. did git commit without -m
  2. did git commit --amend -m "commit message"
  3. git commit --amend -m "commit message" changed my previous commit instead of the one i supposed to commit.

is it possible to revert to before the step 1 without losing my original hashcode or the code i supposed to commit?

commit is not pushed yet btw

git reset --soft "HEAD@{1}"
git commit -m "commit message"

HEAD@{1} means "find where HEAD was before the current commit". You can verify it's really the previous (unmodified) commit using git reflog and git show "HEAD@{1}".

  • I did something wrong. I used the git terminal inside eclipse then i switched to the normal git console and i end up losing a couple of classes. Not sure what happen exactly. – João Paulo Figueira Jan 28 '21 at 17:13
