What is git reset?

What is git reset and when should I use it?

Git reset is a command used to undo changes in your Git repository. You can use it to reset your staging area or your working directory.

Can you explain the different options for git reset?

Sure! The main options are --soft, --mixed, and --hard. --soft keeps your changes in the staging area, --mixed unstages them, and --hard discards all changes.

What happens if I use git reset --hard?

Using git reset --hard will permanently delete all uncommitted changes in your working directory, so be careful!

Is there a way to recover changes after a hard reset?

If you haven't lost the commit history, you can use git reflog to find the commit and recover it.
