git undo [count] [options]
DESCRIPTION
git undo removes the last commit(s) while keeping changes in the working directory (unstaged). It is a convenient wrapper around `git reset` that defaults to a mixed reset, preserving all work.Without arguments, it undoes the most recent commit. Pass a number to undo multiple commits. Use --soft to keep changes staged, or --hard to discard them entirely.
