See what's about to be committed when using git, and remove something before committing

Submitted by Benjamin Melançon on August 27, 2010 - 7:04pm

git diff of files that have been staged ie 'git add'ed
git diff --cached

$ git commit ...
$ git reset --soft HEAD^ (1)
$ edit (2)

And just commit again.

git revert could have worked, but the working copy must be clean (git stash should have been able to do that)

Searched words:

git see what's about to be committed diff git diff staged git remove from staging git undo commit git roll back commit
