I have created a migration using the Add-Migration command, but I'd like to change the name of that migration. How can I undo the migration command, so that I can regenerate it using the new desired name?
Is it just a matter of deleting the generated files, or this could be a bad idea?
If you haven't used Update-Database you can just delete it. If you've run the update then roll it back using Update-Database -TargetMigration "NameOfPreviousMigration", then delete it.

If you haven't executed the migration yet with Update-Database, you can run Add-Migration again with the same name (you may need to use -Force) to re-execute the scaffolding. This is noted in the output of the Add-Migration command.
With EntityFrameworkCore 2.0 comes the model snapshot. You will need to run the remove migration command in order to update the model snapshot. I have read that EF Core will recognize any update and revert the snapshot for you if you manually delete the migration but this has not worked for me.
