3. Look for the commit you want to keep. Copy the SHA of that commit to a notepad.
4. git checkout my_branch
5. gitk (This will open the git console )
6. Right click on the commit you want to revert to (State before your changes) and click on "reset branch to here"

8. git cherry-pick

Now look at the local branch commit history and make sure everything looks good.
