What is the git commands to delete unwanted commits that haven't been pushed to the remote?

Question

If I have a few local topic branches I have made commits on and haven't yet pushed them to the remote, how can I delete them?

I don't want to pollute the main tree with unwanted commits.

Answer 1

If you haven't yet pushed them to the remote, it should be easy to delete them.

git branch -D <branch-to-delete>

will forcibly delete a branch that you don't want to keep.

Try this one. This way it's possible to drop single commit. I assume the commit you want to drop is no further than 16 steps back from the HEAD.

git rebase -i HEAD~16...HEAD
