Deleting a commit in Between other commits

Question

I have a local and its corresponding github repo. I have some commits as

A <- B <- C <- D

A being the latest.

This is situ

Answer 1

1. Ensure you back up your .git folder.
2. Ensure commit D , don’t rely upon the changes made in C.
3. git rebase --onto D B~1 (as A is the latest commit)

Answer 2

Git-rebase is what are you looking for.

in your case of commit A-B-C-D, and want to remove C, try:

git rebase -i HEAD~3

it will show the last 3 of your commits via editor (mine is vim), just delete (in vim: dd) the line of commit you want to remove, then save it (in vim: :wq).

Done, view the git log and you will see that the C commit is removed.

*don't forget to backup your code or .git folder.
