If you have pushed the commits upstream     Select the commit you would like to roll back to and reverse the changes by clicking Reverse File  Reverse Hunk or Reverse Selected Lines  Do this for all the commits after the commit you would like to roll back to also      If you have not pushed the commits upstream     Right click on the commit and click on Reset current branch to this commit

I searched for multiple options to get my git reset to specific commit  but most of them aren t so satisfactory   I generally use this to reset the git to the specific commit in source tree    select commit to reset on sourcetree  In dropdowns select the active branch   first Parent Only And right click on  Reset branch to this commit  and select hard reset option  soft  mixed and hard  and then go to terminal git push -f   You should be all set
