如何在git中反转提交列表？

Question

I have a source tree with git and I need to reverse all my changes that I have done since September, I know the id of the commit, and I can also generate a list of commits that I want to revert with git rev-list, the question is how do I feed that list to git so that it uncommits all of them?

Or if there is a better way to do this I would really appreciate it.

Answer 2

If you want to destroy all changes since a given commit, you can reset the branch you are working on (for example master) to the commit. What git reset <commit> does is that it moves your HEAD to the given commit. The following commits get discarded.

A---B---C---D-master

then

git reset --hard <SHA1-of-B>

gives you:

A---B-master

--hard is for discarding your recent changes from the index and your local files.

If you have multiple branches, this might get a bit more complicated, but you get the idea.

Note that the discarded commits may be recoverable with git reflog , but you won't be likely to see them if you're not trying to. Eventually, the discarded commits will disappear for good, especially if you're using git gc now and then.
