git:commit:most-recent:undo

Undo most recent git commit
$ git reset HEAD~
try on your machine

The command "git reset HEAD~" is used to undo the most recent commit and move the changes to the staging area.

"HEAD" refers to the most recent commit, and the tilde (~) means to go back one commit. So, this command is telling Git to undo the most recent commit and move the changes to the staging area.

Note that this command only undoes the commit, but it does not remove the changes entirely. If you want to completely remove the changes, you will need to use a different command, such as "git reset --hard HEAD~".

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
