Question

I made a commit in my local system and pushed it for review..

Now i want to make another commit and push it and make sure the first one is not a dependency. How can i do that?

Please help me with the commands.

You have several options. You can simply discard the last commit (you’ll lose it and have to use reflog to recover it unless you save the hash):

git reset --hard HEAD~1

Alternatively you can do a soft reset and stash your last commit:

git reset --soft HEAD~1
git stash

Or you can branch the commit before and work in that branch:

git checkout -b newbranch HEAD~1
