reset是指将当前head的内容重置，不会留任何痕迹。

Sets the current head to the specified commit and optionally resets the index and working tree to match. 

 git reset --hard HEAD~3

会将最新的3次提交全部重置，就像没有提交过一样。

根据--soft --mixed --hard，会对working tree和index和HEAD进行重置。

revert是撤销某次提交，但是这次撤销也会作为一次提交进行保存(这样就不会丢失原来修改过，但是没有提交的内容？)。

如何使用git回退部分修改

人总有犯错误的时候，如果发现不小心把私货提交到公共代码库，改如何挽回呢？

例如如下代码库：

$ mkdir git-partial-revert
$ cd git-partial-revert
$ echo "hello a" >a.txt
$ echo "hello b" >b.txt
$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/liang/project/git/git-partial-revert/.git/
$ git add *.txt
$ git commit -m "initial version"
[master (root-commit) b5e1a24] initial version
 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
 create mode 100644 a.txt
 create mode 100644 b.txt
$ git log
commit b5e1a24fc65202977b903435750dd9fb5e0d04d0
Author: Liang Wang <a@b.c>
Date:   Fri Jul 30 13:20:38 2010 +0800

 initial version

以下是一次错误的修改。

$ echo "hello a from b" >>a.txt
$ echo "hello b from a" >>b.txt
$ git commit -a -m "hello a from b"
[master df3144e] hello a from b
 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
$ git push origin master
$ git log
commit df3144e3168f6ec189ed0b2b57908d8d4e862fe5
Author: Liang Wang <a@b.c>
Date:   Fri Jul 30 13:22:51 2010 +0800

 hello a from b

commit b5e1a24fc65202977b903435750dd9fb5e0d04d0
Author: Liang Wang <a@b.c>
Date:   Fri Jul 30 13:20:38 2010 +0800

 initial version

错误在于只应该提交对于a.txt的修改，b.txt的修改是私货，应该留在本地，以后提交。

第一种方法：纯手工修改。取决于要修改的内容多少，这可能是最简单也可能是最笨的方法。

如果错误发生在最新的commit里面，可以使用git reset修改。如下：

$ git reset b5e1a24f -- b.txt
Unstaged changes after reset:
M       b.txt
$ cat b.txt
hello b
hello b from a

这时b的修改就从公共代码库上拿掉了，但是还保留在本地。

或者也可以使用git revert。下面操作的缺点是没有保留对于b.txt的修改。如何保留修改留给读者作为习题 :-)

如果错误的修改已经不是最新的commit，则只能使用git revert。

我们teamleader的总结，很不错的！！！
