What if you commit a change, and then realize that you committed to a different branch? How can you change that? This is what this tutorial covers.
To do this, type:
git reset HEAD~ --soft - Undoes the last commit, but leaves the changes available.
git stash - Records the state of the directory.
git checkout name-of-the-correct-branch - Switches to another branch.
git stash pop - Removes latest stashed state.
git add . - Or try adding individual files.
git commit -m "your message here" - Saves and Commits the changes.
Now your changes are on the correct branch
To do this, type:
git branch newbranch - Creates a new Branch. Saving all the Commits.
git reset --hard HEAD~# - Move master back by # commits. Remember, these commits will be gone from master
git checkout newbranch - Goes to the branch you created. It will have all the commits.
Remember: Any changes not committed will be LOST.
