How to undo or abort a Git rebase process?

Originally posted here!

Sometimes during a Git rebase process, you may encounter some merge conflicts and Git asks you to resolve the conflicts to move forward with the rebasing.

There is also an option to completely abort or undo this rebase process, which doesn't mean it will remove the conflicts but will help you to undo a fully rebased branch to its original state before the rebase or abort the rebase process so that you can continue with it later onwards.

You can do this by passing an --abort flag to the git rebase command during the rebase process like this,

git rebase --abort
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This aborts the whole rebase process.

Feel free to share if you found this useful 😃.
