Steps shown in the video
Recorded on Linux. The shortcuts below match the recording.
- Change the history mode to First-parent to follow the mainline, Merges only to inspect merges, or All branches to see the wider graph.
- Select the mistaken merge and press R to revert it. Choose the parent belonging to main as the mainline to keep.
- Confirm the revert. GitComet creates a new commit undoing the merge’s changes while keeping the earlier history intact.
- Right-click a commit from an earlier release and choose Create branch from this commit. Name the hotfix branch and check it out.
- Select another worktree’s changes in the log to inspect its work in progress without switching tabs.

38 secondsRewrite History, Cleanly
Clean up a branch with GitComet’s interactive rebase editor. Fold fixup commits into their targets, reorder the remaining commits and replace an unclear commit message before completing the rebase.
43 secondsPick the Fix, Leave the Rest
Bring one fix from a feature branch onto main without merging the rest of the branch. Then squash two unpushed commits into a single commit before pushing.
