The command "git restore --source ${commit} ${filename}" is used in Git version control system to restore a specific file to its state at a particular commit.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
"git restore" is the main command that is used to restore files or file contents in Git.
-
"--source" is an option that specifies the commit from which to restore the file. In this case, "${commit}" is a placeholder for the specific commit hash or reference that you want to restore the file from.
-
"${filename}" is a placeholder for the name of the file you want to restore.
By running this command, you are telling Git to restore the specified file "${filename}" to the version it had at the specific commit "${commit}". This means that any changes made to the file after that commit will be discarded, and the file will be reverted to the state it had at that commit.
