Oh shit I want to roll back a bunch of commits without deleting them

[thedjdoorn]

Let's be fair: nobody uses revert for fun, and reset is a landmine if used incorrectly. You don't need them anyway, since we have:

git checkout *hash* .

Which resets all files to the status of that commit. Combine with git clean -df to remove any file or directory that wasn't being tracked at the time. Run a new git commit and boom, back to work. Nothing (of value) was lost.
