un-source ros2 package without closing and reopening console

Hi,

On Ubuntu 20.04, ROS2 Foxy, is there a way to "reset" your environment, equivalent to closing and reopening the terminal, without actually having to close and reopen it?

You mean, like a virtualenv's deactivate command in Python? I don't know of anything like that for the same shell. If you're building from source and using bash, colcon-spawn-shell creates a setup script that spawns a new shell with a colcon workspace sourced, then that shell can be exited. https://github.com/colcon/colcon-spawn-shell
