(does a mixed reset)\n        .then(function() {\n            return repo.createCommitOnHead(\n                files,\n                author,\n                committer,\n                message\n            );\n        })\n        .catch(function(err) {\n            handleError(err);\n        });\n}\n```\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/freder","@type":"Person","name":"freder"},"datePublished":"2015-07-29T09:47:33.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":3},"url":"https://github.com/655/nodegit/issues/655"}
