Deleting commits using Git Tower

Question

I was attempting to completely delete a commit I just made and I'm trying to figure out how to do it inside of git tower. I had clicked on the Make a collection commit and did revert but not sure if that was right. So what I want to do is have the commit with the subject Include recipes from course teacher as the most recent commit and delete the two above it. Thoughts on how I can do this?

Answer 1

If the commit you want to delete is the last one, you have to do a git reset --hard pointing the previous commit. The revert create another commit to delete changes, not really deleting the commit.

WARNING , you will loose all files of your working tree. If you have some, stash them.

If you already push the commit you want to delete, I advise you to keep the revert, otherwise you will have to push force. See there : Git delete commit
