Your (only?) branch Branch_test is pointing to a later commit. With that out of the way, let's see the specific case: Your 'detached HEAD' is not a symptom of decapitation, but that the pointer to the checked out commit (that's what HEAD is: a pointer to a commit) is not currently associated with a branch. You might also try Oh my git!, it's a gamified tutorial, but it uses real git, and does not hide its working. In my experience, tools are helpful, but an understanding of the basic working of the tool is fundamental: for me it only 'clicked' when I stopped relying on tools (I still use the integration in VSC and its git graph extension for basic stuff), on answers on stack exchange (which helped me screw up a lot) and on dodgy tutorials. Thank youįirst, a hint: if you want to use git, invest some time going through the book. With reference to the first attached picture: 1) I went back to the commit previous to the latest as you can see on it being highlighted in bold (Description: 'WORKING: But noticed the concurrent ON prints.') 2) I did not change anything (that I m aware of) while that commit is 'active' 3) just now I tried clicking on the latest commit (Comment: 'WORKING: Concurrent tested correctly') but when I double click on it it shows the error message in the screenshot which I don't understand the explanation of.

This is the sequence of events and what happened. But did just now and when trying to get back to the latest a warning comes up. I have never gone back to an older commit (i.e. I only keep adding commits and if needed then go back to the latest one ONLY. GitHub) version control only in local mode and used it only in 'simple way', no branching or anything else.

How can I safely checkout the latest commit while making sure none of those two (or other) commits are changed in any way? I have been using Sourcetree (i.e. Hi, Please see attached screenshot with version control warning.
