To undo staged changes to a file in Git there are two steps:
unstage the file using
git resetundo the changes using
git checkout
Examples
Let's assume we have a file called example.txt under /Users/Bob directory that we have previously staged using git add.
To unstage the file and undo the changes introduced since the last commit:
git reset HEAD /Users/Bobgit checkout -- /Users/Bob
HEAD is a shortcut which points to the most recent commit. Therefore, here we are undoing all changes made since the last commit.
