Git reset is the command that allows you to discard or revise commit history within your repository. Whether you’re undoing some changes or re-crafting your commits in a new way, git reset is the appropriate command. We’ll also take a look at several of reset’s command line options and examine how git checkout performs similar functions.

Go beyond the basics and take Git to a higher level of productivity. If you’re familiar with this popular distributed revision control system (DVCS), Mastering Advanced Git will help you leverage Git’s powerful yet underused advanced features.
Matthew McCullough and Tim Berglund demonstrate how Git not only incorporates the best features of existing source control systems, but also includes unique distributed capabilities that make version control commands available without connectivity, allowing you to choose when to interact with a network.
