You can use
git revert <commit>…for all the n commits, and then push as usual, keeping history unchanged.Or you can ‘roll back’ with
git reset --hard HEAD~n. If you are pushing in a public or shared repository, you may diverge and break others work based on your original branch. Git will prevent you doing so, but you can usegit push -fto force the update.
