Git cancel a revert

Question

In git let say I commit A and B

A---[B]

But then I revert with

git revert HEAD

So I am there now:

Answer 1

You have two general choices:

• Revert the revert commit (creating a second revert commit that takes you back to the original)
• Throw away the revert commit with

git reset --hard HEAD^

The second option is only appropriate if you have not pushed your changes anywhere else. In fact, if you haven't pushed your first revert commit anywhere yet, you can simply use

git reset --hard

to roll back without creating any revert commits at all.
