git reflog

reference logs, record when the tips of branches and references were updated in the local repository.

$ git reflog
4c5ce5c (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) HEAD@{0}: commit: improving ch6
df4b14e HEAD@{1}: commit: fixed slack invite link.
ac137fd HEAD@{2}: pull -v --progress origin: Fast-forward
80757d8 HEAD@{3}: commit: added slack group link.
023e41a HEAD@{4}: clone: from [email protected]:pezy/CppPrimer.git

To move to the desired state you just need to run a checkout using the absolute reference:

git checkout 023e41a

or just using the relative reference:

git checkout HEAD@{4}

git revert

git revert is used to record some new commits to reverse the effect of some earlier commits(often only a faulty one). This requires your working tree to be clean(no modifications from the HEAD commit).
