如何从git中的提交历史转到提交？

Question

I deleted one file after my first commit, and I want to know how can I revert back to that commit state (all files in working dir to that state). Can someone please help me with this?

$ git log
commit 2e8bd07a1f7446d2acef86f854ad57dabe4e5834

Answer 1

You can use :

$ git log

and then checkout the commit :

$ git checkout 2e8bd07a1f7446d2acef86f854ad57dabe4e5834

Answer 2

You can use git checkout FILE to revert a file in the working directory back to its committed state. This also works for whole directories, so git checkout . will recursively revert all files in the current directory.
