Raw
git-revert-multiple-commits.sh
##
# Reverting a range of commits
#
# git --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit older_commit..newer_commit # not includes the oldest commit
# git --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit older_commit^..newer_commit # includes the oldest commit
##
# just to be sure about the commits, list them
git log --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit 1f80548^..4b293d5
# now, let's revert all commits
git revert --no-commit 1f80548^..4b293d5
# then let's commit all of them with a single message
git commit -am "[RELEASE_FIX] this feature should not be here now;";
