How do I load a specific git commit?
Step 1: fetch list of commits:
git log
You'll get list like in this example:
[Comp:Folder User$ git log
commit 54b11d42e12dc6e9f070a8b5095a4492216d5320
Author: author <[email protected]>
Date: Fri Jul 8 23:42:22 2016 +0300
This is last commit message
commit fd6cb176297acca4dbc69d15d6b7f78a2463482f
Author: author <[email protected]>
Date: Fri Jun 24 20:20:24 2016 +0300
This is previous commit message
commit ab0de062136da650ffc27cfb57febac8efb84b8d
Author: author <[email protected]>
Date: Thu Jun 23 00:41:55 2016 +0300
This is previous previous commit message
...
Step 2: copy needed commit hash and paste it for checkout:
git checkout fd6cb176297acca4dbc69d15d6b7f78a2463482f
Thats all.
Instead of passing the name of a branch, you can pass any commit ID to checkout
:
git checkout <commit-id>
See the man
page.
