You can also do like similar situation answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/10415744/704008 from @MarkLongair. Answer is better suited for multiple commits and if you don't want mess in git log or source control history of revert & then again revert of revert.

git revert abcd123
git revert --no-commit wxyz789
git commit --amend -m"you edit commit message"

You can also have concise in one line for two or more revert commits like :

git revert abcd123 wxyz789 --no-commit 
git commit --amend -m"you edit commit message"

... and then write an appropriate commit message describing the combined effect of reverting both commits.

All this will appear as single commit with given message & not multiple revert commit in git log or above source control logs(like bitbucket/TFS/JIRA git integration).
