    If you want to throw away the merge commit and go back to bar123, use:

    git reset --hard bar123
    

    At that point, you can try the merge again.

    The git revert command creates a new commit that reverses the effect of a previous commit, but the presence of revert commits for future merges can be confusing and problematic.
