git reset HEAD~1

[Ralf Corsepius]

Hi,

http://wiki.rtems.org/wiki/index.php/Git

tells:

  git reset HEAD-1

Removes the last 1 (or any other number you put) commit from the current 
branch. git reset should only be used on local branches that no one else 
is accessing remotely. This is a very powerful and tricky command; A 
good description of what it enables to do can be found here


Either there is a language barrier causing me to misunderstand this 
sentence or this sentence doesn't seem right:

git reset HEAD  ... removes the last commit
git reset HEAD~1 ... remove the last 2 commits

The human factor had just hit me (I needed to revert my last commit), 
causing me to exercise this to trip over this.
