Example 1: how to revert back to previous commit in git

# Don't do it if you have uncommitted work you want to keep.
git reset --hard 0d1d7fc32
# Alternatively, if there's work to keep:
git stash
git reset --hard 0d1d7fc32

# You could get merge conflicts, if you've modified things which were
# changed since the commit you reset to.
