If a path is tracked but does not exist in the restore +source, it will be removed to match the source. + +The command can also be used to restore the content in the index with +`--staged`, or restore both the working tree and the index with +`--staged --worktree`. + +By default, if `--staged` is given, the contents are restored from `HEAD`, +otherwise from the index. Use `--source` to restore from a different commit. + +See "Reset, restore and revert" in linkgit:git[1] for the differences +between the three commands. + +THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL. THE BEHAVIOR MAY CHANGE. + +OPTIONS +------- +-s <tree>:: +--source=<tree>:: + Restore the working tree files with the content from the given + tree. It is common to specify the source tree by naming a + commit, branch or tag associated with it. ++ +If not specified, the contents are restored from `HEAD` if `--staged` is +given, otherwise from the index. ++ +As a special case, you may use `"A...B"` as a shortcut for the +merge base of `A` and `B` if there is exactly one merge base. You can +leave out at most one of `A` and `B`, in which case it defaults to `HEAD`. + +-p:: +--patch:: + Interactively select hunks in the difference between the + restore source and the restore location. See the ``Interactive + Mode'' section of linkgit:git-add[1] to learn how to operate + the `--patch` mode. ++ +Note that `--patch` can accept no pathspec and will prompt to restore +all modified paths. + +-W:: +--worktree:: +-S:: +--staged:: + Specify the restore location. If neither option is specified, + by default the working tree is restored. Specifying `--staged` + will only restore the index. Specifying both restores both. + +-q:: +--quiet:: + Quiet, suppress feedback messages. Implies `--no-progress`. + +--progress:: +--no-progress:: + Progress status is reported on the standard error stream + by default when it is attached to a terminal, unless `--quiet` + is specified. This flag enables progress reporting even if not + attached to a terminal, regardless of `--quiet`. + +--ours:: +--theirs:: + When restoring files in the working tree from the index, use + stage #2 ('ours') or #3 ('theirs') for unmerged paths. + This option cannot be used when checking out paths from a + tree-ish (i.e. with the `--source` option). ++ +Note that during `git rebase` and `git pull --rebase`, 'ours' and +'theirs' may appear swapped. See the explanation of the same options +in linkgit:git-checkout[1] for details. + +-m:: +--merge:: + When restoring files on the working tree from the index, + recreate the conflicted merge in the unmerged paths. + This option cannot be used when checking out paths from a + tree-ish (i.e. with the `--source` option). + +--conflict=<style>:: + The same as `--merge` option above, but changes the way the + conflicting hunks are presented, overriding the + `merge.conflictStyle` configuration variable. Possible values + are "merge" (default), "diff3", and "zdiff3". + +--ignore-unmerged:: + When restoring files on the working tree from the index, do + not abort the operation if there are unmerged entries and + neither `--ours`, `--theirs`, `--merge` or `--conflict` is + specified. Unmerged paths on the working tree are left alone. + +--ignore-skip-worktree-bits:: + In sparse checkout mode, the default is to only update entries + matched by `<pathspec>` and sparse patterns in + $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout. This option ignores the sparse + patterns and unconditionally restores any files in + `<pathspec>`. + +--recurse-submodules:: +--no-recurse-submodules:: + If `<pathspec>` names an active submodule and the restore location + includes the working tree, the submodule will only be updated if + this option is given, in which case its working tree will be + restored to the commit recorded in the superproject, and any local + modifications overwritten. If nothing (or + `--no-recurse-submodules`) is used, submodules working trees will + not be updated. Just like linkgit:git-checkout[1], this will detach + `HEAD` of the submodule. + +--overlay:: +--no-overlay:: + In overlay mode, the command never removes files when + restoring. In no-overlay mode, tracked files that do not + appear in the `--source` tree are removed, to make them match + `<tree>` exactly. The default is no-overlay mode. + +--pathspec-from-file=<file>:: + Pathspec is passed in `<file>` instead of commandline args. If + `<file>` is exactly `-` then standard input is used. Pathspec + elements are separated by LF or CR/LF. Pathspec elements can be + quoted as explained for the configuration variable `core.quotePath` + (see linkgit:git-config[1]). See also `--pathspec-file-nul` and + global `--literal-pathspecs`. + +--pathspec-file-nul:: + Only meaningful with `--pathspec-from-file`. Pathspec elements are + separated with NUL character and all other characters are taken + literally (including newlines and quotes). + +\--:: + Do not interpret any more arguments as options. + +<pathspec>...:: + Limits the paths affected by the operation. ++ +For more details, see the 'pathspec' entry in linkgit:gitglossary[7]. + +EXAMPLES +-------- + +The following sequence switches to the `master` branch, reverts the +`Makefile` to two revisions back, deletes hello.c by mistake, and gets +it back from the index. + +------------ +$ git switch master +$ git restore --source master~2 Makefile <1> +$ rm -f hello.c +$ git restore hello.c <2> +------------ + +<1> take a file out of another commit +<2> restore hello.c from the index + +If you want to restore _all_ C source files to match the version in +the index, you can say + +------------ +$ git restore '*.c' +------------ + +Note the quotes around `*.c`. The file `hello.c` will also be +restored, even though it is no longer in the working tree, because the +file globbing is used to match entries in the index (not in the +working tree by the shell). + +To restore all files in the current directory + +------------ +$ git restore . +------------ + +or to restore all working tree files with 'top' pathspec magic (see +linkgit:gitglossary[7]) + +------------ +$ git restore :/ +------------ + +To restore a file in the index to match the version in `HEAD` (this is +the same as using linkgit:git-reset[1]) + +------------ +$ git restore --staged hello.c +------------ + +or you can restore both the index and the working tree (this is the same +as using linkgit:git-checkout[1]) + +------------ +$ git restore --source=HEAD --staged --worktree hello.c +------------ + +or the short form which is more practical but less readable: + +------------ +$ git restore -s@ -SW hello.c +------------ + +SEE ALSO +-------- +linkgit:git-checkout[1], +linkgit:git-reset[1] + +GIT +--- +Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite |
