We often come across some weird scenarios (especially my team) while committing our code changes. Some of them are,

How can I bring the file to working area, which I have added to the staging area by mistake?

OMG! I made a commit with production keys in the code but did not push the code yet. Is it possible to delete that commit? (Meanwhile, my tech lead be like 😡)

Can anyone say how to remove the changes which I’ve pushed already?

I logged onto Production machine and made a change to a file and fixed the production issue immediately 👏 (Can also be debugging on production 😜). Now, I want to remove that change using git cli for the CI/CD to pass. Any Git commands available for this purpose?
