Delete
Last local commit
If you have committed some files and still not pushed to cloud git server you can still hard reset the head to remove that commit and history too.
git reset --hard HEAD^
Also next git push won’t commit the deleted commit and also you will lose the commit changes progress so make sure you have your work stashed or saved off to some folder or file.
For reverting Undo the commits.
Removing the last commit from the git current branch
git reset --soft HEAD~1
Options
Multiple options if we haven’t pushed the code to origin server.
Option 1 : Undo commit and keep all files staged
git reset --soft HEAD~;
Option 2 : Undo commit and un-stage all files
git reset HEAD~;
# OR
git reset --mixed HEAD~;
Option 3 : Undo the commit and completely remove all changes
git reset --hard HEAD~;
Revert Range history
If your changes have already been pushed to a public, shared remote, and you want to revert all commits between HEAD and <sha-id>, then you can pass a commit range to git revert,
git revert 56e05f..HEAD
and it will revert all commits between 56e05f and HEAD (excluding the start point of the range, 56e05f).

Delete till a point
If you want to go back to that commit before you made git merge commit you can specify the sha code to make the HEAD to that point.
Eg. SHA: 4e8a118f
git reset --hard $GIT_COMMIT_SHA
