Git: can't undo local changes (error: path ... is unmerged)


You did it the wrong way around. You are meant to reset first, to unstage the file, then checkout, to revert local changes.

Try this:

$ git reset foo/bar.txt$ git checkout foo/bar.txt


This worked perfectly for me:

$ git reset -- foo/bar.txt$ git checkout foo/bar.txt


git checkout origin/[branch] .git status

// Note dot (.) at the end. And all will be good
