checkout back to head commit code example
Example 1: git checkout previous commit HEAD
# Checkout a given commit.
# Doing so will result in a `detached HEAD` which mean that the `HEAD`
# is not pointing to the latest so you will need to checkout branch
# in order to be able to update the code.
git checkout <commit-id>
# Create a new branch forked to the given commit
git checkout -b <branch name>
Example 2: git checkout previous commit HEAD
git checkout <commit_id>
git checkout -b <new branch> <commit_id>
git checkout HEAD~X // x is the number of commits to go back
