uncommit

uncommit | unc

uncommit part or all of the current commit

Reverse the effects of an sl commit operation. When run with no arguments, hides the current commit and checks out the parent commit, but does not revert the state of the working copy. Changes that were contained in the uncommitted commit become pending changes in the working copy.

The current commit can be in the middle of a stack. If some of its changes are uncommitted, or all of them with --keep, the commit is rewritten and its descendants are restacked onto the new version as sl amend restacks them (see amend.autorestack). Descendants whose restack would conflict are left on the old version; run sl restack to move them. Uncommitting every change of a commit that has descendants requires --keep, which leaves the commit in the stack, empty: without it, nothing would replace the commit.

By default, you cannot run sl uncommit if there are pending changes in the working copy.

You can selectively uncommit files from the current commit by optionally specifying a list of files to remove. The specified files are removed from the list of changed files in the current commit, but are not modified on disk, so they appear as pending changes in the working copy.

Running sl uncommit is similar to running sl undo --keep immediately after sl commit. However, unlike sl undo, which can only undo a commit if it was the last operation you performed, sl uncommit can uncommit any draft commit you check out.
