Is there a way to revert to a previous commit in VS code?
I googled it but was unable to find the answer to the question.
Thanks in advance.
P.S I know I can see the changes between commits and the differences in the working tree but I want to know how to reset to the previous commit in visual studio code
With the source control icon selected, if you then click the ellipsis ... at the top right.
With v1.48 you will see a list of options for submenus: under Commit
is Undo Last Commit
. Under Changes
is Discard All Changes
.
Provided that you have GitLens extension installed you should be able to simply select "Restore" action from selected "File history" commit.
I use GitLens for that:
- In the source control tab, open
File History
. - Choose your commit, then right-click
Commit
. - Click on
Revert Commit...
.
