<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In the first three forms, copy entries from <em>&lt;tree-ish&gt;</em> to the index.
In the last form, set the current branch head (<code>HEAD</code>) to <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em>,
optionally modifying index and working tree to match.
The <em>&lt;tree-ish&gt;</em>/<em>&lt;commit&gt;</em> defaults to <code>HEAD</code> in all forms.</p>
</div>
<div class="dlist">
<dl>
<dt class="hdlist1"><em>git reset</em> [-q] [&lt;tree-ish&gt;] [--] &lt;pathspec&gt;&#8230;&#8203;</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1"><em>git reset</em> [-q] [--pathspec-from-file=&lt;file&gt; [--pathspec-file-nul]] [&lt;tree-ish&gt;]</dt>
<dd>
<p>These forms reset the index entries for all paths that match the
<em>&lt;pathspec&gt;</em> to their state at <em>&lt;tree-ish&gt;</em>.  (It does not affect
the working tree or the current branch.)</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This means that <code>git</code> <code>reset</code> <em>&lt;pathspec&gt;</em> is the opposite of <code>git</code> <code>add</code>
<em>&lt;pathspec&gt;</em>. This command is equivalent to
<code>git</code> <code>restore</code> [<code>--source=</code><em>&lt;tree-ish&gt;</em>] <code>--staged</code> <em>&lt;pathspec&gt;</em>....</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After running <code>git</code> <code>reset</code> <em>&lt;pathspec&gt;</em> to update the index entry, you can
use <a href="git-restore.html">git-restore(1)</a> to check the contents out of the index to
the working tree. Alternatively, using <a href="git-restore.html">git-restore(1)</a>
and specifying a commit with <code>--source</code>, you
can copy the contents of a path out of a commit to the index and to the
working tree in one go.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1"><em>git reset</em> (--patch | -p) [&lt;tree-ish&gt;] [--] [&lt;pathspec&gt;&#8230;&#8203;]</dt>
<dd>
<p>Interactively select hunks in the difference between the index
and <em>&lt;tree-ish&gt;</em> (defaults to <code>HEAD</code>).  The chosen hunks are applied
in reverse to the index.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This means that <code>git</code> <code>reset</code> <code>-p</code> is the opposite of <code>git</code> <code>add</code> <code>-p</code>, i.e.
you can use it to selectively reset hunks. See the &#8220;Interactive Mode&#8221;
section of <a href="git-add.html">git-add(1)</a> to learn how to operate the <code>--patch</code> mode.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1"><em>git reset</em> [&lt;mode&gt;] [&lt;commit&gt;]</dt>
<dd>
<p>This form resets the current branch head to <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em> and
possibly updates the index (resetting it to the tree of <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em>) and
the working tree depending on <em>&lt;mode&gt;</em>. Before the operation, <code>ORIG_HEAD</code>
is set to the tip of the current branch. If <em>&lt;mode&gt;</em> is omitted,
defaults to <code>--mixed</code>. The <em>&lt;mode&gt;</em> must be one of the following:</p>

<dt class="hdlist1">--soft</dt>

<p>Does not touch the index file or the working tree at all (but
resets the head to <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em>, just like all modes do). This leaves
all your changed files "Changes to be committed", as <code>git</code> <code>status</code>
would put it.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--mixed</dt>
<dd>
<p>Resets the index but not the working tree (i.e., the changed files
are preserved but not marked for commit) and reports what has not
been updated. This is the default action.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If <code>-N</code> is specified, removed paths are marked as intent-to-add (see
<a href="git-add.html">git-add(1)</a>).</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--hard</dt>
<dd>
<p>Resets the index and working tree. Any changes to tracked files in the
working tree since <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em> are discarded.  Any untracked files or
directories in the way of writing any tracked files are simply deleted.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--merge</dt>
<dd>
<p>Resets the index and updates the files in the working tree that are
different between <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em> and <code>HEAD</code>, but keeps those which are
different between the index and working tree (i.e. which have changes
which have not been added).
If a file that is different between <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em> and the index has
unstaged changes, reset is aborted.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In other words, <code>--merge</code> does something like a <code>git</code> <code>read-tree</code> <code>-u</code> <code>-m</code> <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em>,
but carries forward unmerged index entries.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--keep</dt>
<dd>
<p>Resets index entries and updates files in the working tree that are
different between <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em> and <code>HEAD</code>.
If a file that is different between <em>&lt;commit&gt;</em> and <code>HEAD</code> has local
changes, reset is aborted.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--[no-]recurse-submodules</dt>
<dd>
<p>When the working tree is updated, using --recurse-submodules will
also recursively reset the working tree of all active submodules
according to the commit recorded in the superproject, also setting
the submodules' HEAD to be detached at that commit.</p>

<p>First, reset the history back one commit so that we remove the original
commit, but leave the working tree with all the changes. The -N ensures
that any new files added with <code>HEAD</code> are still marked so that <code>git</code> <code>add</code> <code>-p</code>
will find them.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Next, we interactively select diff hunks to add using the <code>git</code> <code>add</code> <code>-p</code>
facility. This will ask you about each diff hunk in sequence and you can
use simple commands such as "yes, include this", "No don&#8217;t include this"
or even the very powerful "edit" facility.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Once satisfied with the hunks you want to include, you should verify what
has been prepared for the first commit by using <code>git</code> <code>diff</code> <code>--cached</code>. This
shows all the changes that have been moved into the index and are about
to be committed.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Next, commit the changes stored in the index. The <code>-c</code> option specifies to
pre-populate the commit message from the original message that you started
with in the first commit. This is helpful to avoid retyping it. The
<code>HEAD@</code>{1} is a special notation for the commit that <code>HEAD</code> used to be at
prior to the original reset commit (1 change ago).
See <a href="git-reflog.html">git-reflog(1)</a> for more details. You may also use any other
valid commit reference.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>You can repeat steps 2-4 multiple times to break the original code into
any number of commits.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Now you&#8217;ve split out many of the changes into their own commits, and might
no longer use the patch mode of <code>git</code> <code>add</code>, in order to select all remaining
uncommitted changes.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Once again, check to verify that you&#8217;ve included what you want to. You may
also wish to verify that git diff doesn&#8217;t show any remaining changes to be
committed later.</p>

<p><code>reset</code> <code>--merge</code> is meant to be used when resetting out of a conflicted
merge. Any mergy operation guarantees that the working tree file that is
involved in the merge does not have a local change with respect to the index
before it starts, and that it writes the result out to the working tree. So if
we see some difference between the index and the target and also
between the index and the working tree, then it means that we are not
resetting out from a state that a mergy operation left after failing
with a conflict. That is why we disallow <code>--merge</code> option in this case.</p>

want to remove and the changes in the working tree we want to keep,
the reset is disallowed. That&#8217;s why it is disallowed if there are both
changes between the working tree and <code>HEAD</code>, and between <code>HEAD</code> and the
target. To be safe, it is also disallowed when there are unmerged
