You can do a
git rebase -i HEAD~2and then use the interface to discard the “bad commits” that are there since then and clean up your history. This however alters the project history and if you’ve already pushed (and others pulled) your changes, there are some social issues to work out.The other option is to
git revertthose changes. Then 2 new commits will get added to the history that makes the fact that you don’t want these two commits explicit in the project history. Less clean but easier to work with.
