How do I revert a git rebase?

An example of an AI chatbot conversation about reverting a git rebase in Git.

You

I accidentally rebased my branch and now I want to revert it. How can I do that?

To revert a git rebase, you can use the command git reflog to find the commit before the rebase. Then, use git reset --hard <commit> to revert to that state.

What if I already pushed the rebased branch to the remote repository?

If you've pushed the rebased branch, you'll need to force push the reverted changes using git push origin <branch-name> --force. Be cautious, as this can overwrite changes on the remote.

Is there a way to undo the rebase without losing my changes?

MagicBuddy

Yes, you can create a new branch from the commit before the rebase using git checkout -b <new-branch> <commit>. This way, you can keep your changes.

😀
You

Can I use git revert instead?

MagicBuddy
MagicBuddy

git revert is typically used for undoing specific commits, but it won't work directly for a rebase. It's better to use git reset or create a new branch as mentioned.
