A = [1,-1,1,1;1,1,1,1;2,1,1,1];
B = unique(A.','rows','stable').'
B = 3×3
1 -1 1 1 1 1 2 1 1

What if you want the indeces too?
[B idx] = unique(A.', 'rows', 'stable').'
Not working!!!
"What if you want the indeces too?"
A = [1,-1,1,1;1,1,1,1;2,1,1,1];
[B,idx] = unique(A.','rows','stable');
B = B.'
B = 3×3
1 -1 1 1 1 1 2 1 1
idx
idx = 3×1
1 2 3
