After doing `git pull` in a local repository, is it possible to find out which commit was the last before the git pull?

I did a git pull. Then, a fast forward merge happened and multiple objects and commits were added to my local repository.

Some things went wrong and I would like to go back to how the local repository was before pulling new objects from upstream.

Hence, I would like to checkout the last commit before pulling. The problem is that I do not remember what was the last commit before pulling.

Is there a command to show the last commit before pulling? Maybe another command that shows what as added on the last git pull?

Thanks.

Solution

  • Do mean something like?

    git reflog <branch>

    It is explained here: git: what commit was I on before I merged?
