I’m working on a git project with a partner. I made some changes, then accidentally added and committed more files than I intended to and pushed them to the master repository. How do I rollback the remote repository to the last commit, BUT preserve my local copy so I can re-add and commit correctly?

    You can tell git push to push the remote to a specific revision:

    git push origin HEAD~1:master

    Explanation:

    • origin is the name of the remote repo
    • HEAD~1 is the source-refspec – the revision to push. HEAD~1 means one commit behind the current local HEAD.
    • master is the target-refspec – the remote branch to push to.
