-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 What is the diff between a --soft and a blank which is --mixed reset? Does this from --soft: "leaves all your changed files "Changes to be committed", as git status would put it.'" mean soft leaves the adds indexed but before the adds were commit and without commit whereas --mixed would erase the index having adds ready to commit? This is how I gather it however the manpage hint's at being written by a thirdparty and having conflicting and scattered jargon makes it to where the user cannot communicate in a meaningful way about using the software. The difference here is touching the index but what does that mean in pragma: what does a git repo index handle? Isn't there some better way to find answers rather than Google advertisements or IRC wrong answers. See the snippet from the manpage below: git reset [<mode>] [<commit>] This form resets the current branch head to <commit> and possibly updates the index (resetting it to the tree of <commit>) and the working tree depending on <mode>. Before the operation, ORIG_HEAD is set to the tip of the current branch. If <mode> is omitted, defaults to --mixed. The <mode> must be one of the following: --soft Does not touch the index file or the working tree at all (but resets the head to <commit>, just like all modes do). This leaves all your changed files "Changes to be committed", as git status would put it. --mixed Resets the index but not the working tree (i.e., the changed files are preserved but not marked for commit) and reports what has not been updated. This is the default action. If -N is specified, removed paths are marked as intent-to-add (see git-add(1)). from A_bughunter@xxxxxxxxx Sent with Proton Mail secure email. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: ProtonMail wnUEARYKACcFgmc5T+sJkKkWZTlQrvKZFiEEZlQIBcAycZ2lO9z2qRZlOVCu 8pkAAKvTAQCQIJGVcxvf7jSYvcPMUyeF15FriACM1QzPX2pyn++bxwEAxuK2 c5qmTxALcRE4OKHk8UkP2S0gHqnos75thGKMwAI= =Ilx7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
