Git and checkouts by date
Cheers to this very handy post for posting details from Nabble on how to check out a git branch based upon the date it was commited. If I haven’t modified Wordpress to turn off the character replacement, then watch out because the double-quotes and double-dash will need to be checked before running the command:
git checkout `git rev-list -n 1 --before="2009-07-27 13:37" master`
A very easy way to flick back to a given revision.
