Git Undo Last Commit
I'm a massive fan of git; it's super powerful and easy to use, especially when it comes to branching. The biggest sin I commit when using git is adding files and then committing them...to master branch instead of a feature branch. Oops. Certainly don't want that.
If you've done a git add (files) and then commit them to the wrong branch, backing that out is easy:
git reset --soft HEAD~1
With the command above, the files are still added but not committed, so you can create your feature branch, do another git commit -m (message), and be on your way!

git undowhich is:Git “easy to use”… Uh, what?
It’s a very complete and powerful tool, no doubt about it, but I wouldn’t call it “easy”. There’s a plethora of options and unclear docs, that it takes a lot of time just to know they exist, not to mention actually use them and get used to them.
For example, I knew about this trick, but didn’t know about Yuriy’s suggestion.
That’s why I end up using a tool like SourceTree instead.
