How to undo a git pull?

I would like to undo my git pull on account of unwanted commits on the remote origin, but I don't know to which revision I have to reset back to.

How can I just go back to the state before I did the git pull on the remote origin?

sehe

Or to make it more explicit than the other answer:

git pull

whoops?

git reset --keep HEAD@{1}

Versions of git older than 1.7.1 do not have --keep. If you use such version, you could use --hard - but that is a dangerous operation because it loses any local changes.

To the commenter

ORIG_HEAD is previous state of HEAD, set by commands that have possibly dangerous behavior, to be easy to revert them. It is less useful now that Git has reflog: HEAD@{1} is roughly equivalent to ORIG_HEAD (HEAD@{1} is always last value of HEAD, ORIG_HEAD is last value of HEAD before dangerous operation)

git reflog show should show you the history of HEAD. You can use that to figure out where you were before the pull. Then you can reset your HEAD to that commit.

This worked for me.

git reset --hard ORIG_HEAD

Undo a merge or pull:

$ git pull                         (1)
Auto-merging nitfol
CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in nitfol
Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.
$ git reset --hard                 (2)
$ git pull . topic/branch          (3)
Updating from 41223... to 13134...
Fast-forward
$ git reset --hard ORIG_HEAD       (4)

Checkout this: HEAD and ORIG_HEAD in Git for more.

Find the <SHA#> for the commit you want to go. You can find it in github or by typing git log or git reflog show at the command line and then do git reset --hard <SHA#>

From https://git-scm.com/docs/git-reset#Documentation/git-reset.txt-Undoamergeorpullinsideadirtyworkingtree

Undo a merge or pull inside a dirty working tree
$ git pull           (1)
Auto-merging nitfol
Merge made by recursive.
 nitfol               |   20 +++++----
 ...
$ git reset --merge ORIG_HEAD      (2)
Even if you may have local modifications in your working tree, you can safely say git pull when you know that the change in the other branch does not overlap with them.

After inspecting the result of the merge, you may find that the change in the other branch is unsatisfactory. Running git reset --hard ORIG_HEAD will let you go back to where you were, but it will discard your local changes, which you do not want. git reset --merge keeps your local changes.
