Git reset some changes in a file，in command line

I changed something in a file, and did not use add or commit. Some part of my changes is not necessary, how can I only reset this part. (I know how to revert the whole file, but the file has many changes and only a little change must be reset. Resetting all the changes would be a nightmare)

For some reason I can only use the command line operation git

Solution

  • consider using

    git checkout -p

    which allows you - for each patch of changes - to reset those changes.
