Later, I found that a file had mistakenly been added to the commit. Later, I found a mistake to add files to the submission.

- remove the file
git rm <file>deleted the filegit rm <file> - commit with amend flag:
git commit --amendsubmit the modified flags:git commit --amend
The amend flag tells git to commit again , but "merge" (not in the sense of merging two branches) this commit with the last commit. Correction flag tells git submit again, but "merge" (not in the sense of merging two branches a) the submission of the final submission.

Removing the file using rm will delete it ! Use rm to delete the file will delete it!
You're always adding to a commit in git rather than removing, so in this instance return the file to the state it was in prior to the first commit (this may be a delete 'rm' action if the file is new) and then re-commit and the file will go . you always add submitted instead of deleting the git in, so this example will file returns to the state before the first submission (if the file is new, it may be deleted 'rm 'action) then resubmit the file will continue.
To return the file to some previous state : you want the file to return to a previous state:
git checkout <commit_id> <path_to_file>
or to return it to the state at the remote HEAD: or return it to the state of the remote HEAD:
git checkout origin/master <path_to_file>
then amend the commit and you should find the file has disappeared from the list (and not deleted from your disk!) and then modify commit, you should find the file disappears from the list (and not deleted from the disk!)

I think other answers here are wrong, because this is a question of moving the mistakenly committed files back to the staging area from the previous commit, without cancelling the changes done to them. I think the other answers here is wrong, because this is the document submitted by a mistake in the past to submit questions moved back to the staging area for the primary, but not cancel the changes made to them. : This can be done like Paritosh Singh suggested that this can be completed as Paritosh Singh suggested:
git reset --soft HEAD^
or either
git reset --soft HEAD~1
Then reset the unwanted files in order to leave them out from the commit: then reset the unwanted files so that they can be removed from the submission:
git reset HEAD path/to/unwanted_file
Now commit again, you can even re -use the same commit message: now submit again, you can even reuse the same commit message:
git commit -c ORIG_HEAD

If you want to preserve your commit ( maybe you already spent some time writing a detailed commit message and do not want to lose it), and you only want to remove the file from the commit, but not from the repository entirely: if you want to keep your submission (perhaps you've spent some time writing a detailed submission information and do not want to lose it), you just want to delete the file from the submission, rather than completely removed from the repository:
git checkout origin/<remote-branch> <filename>
git commit --amend
