Restore file from old commit in git

Check out the file from your old commit via git checkout [Revision_Key] -- path/to/file.
Add, commit, push as appropriate.

git checkout 'master@{7 days ago}' -- path/to/file.txt

This will not alter HEAD, it will just overwrite the local file path/to/file.txt

See man git-rev-parse for possible revision specifications there (of course a simple hash (like dd9bacb) will do nicely)

Don't forget to commit the change (after a review...)
