Remove File from the Latest Commit
I encountered a situation where I accidentally committed files that were not supposed to be included.
git reset --soft HEAD^
I recently encountered a situation where I accidentally committed files that should not have been included in the repository. My goal was to remove these files completely, ensuring they would not remain in the Git commit history.
After some research, I found an effective and straightforward solution:
git reset --soft HEAD^
This command removes the latest commit and moves all the changes from that commit back into the staging area. This allows you to review the files, unstage or delete any unwanted files, and then recommit only what you need.
