Git Problem Overview

I've pushed a commit and I want to revert changes introduced by this commit by applying and committing a reversed patch. How do I do it?

Git Solutions

Solution 1 - Git

Use

git revert HEAD

This will create a patch that reverts the last commit and commit that patch as a new commit.

If you want to revert a specific earlier version, use

git revert <revision>
