git checkout <sha1_of_that_commit> The SHA-1 name of the commit to check out can be found out via `git log` or any other tool which allows to browse the history. Note that once you check out a commit directly - as opposed to checking out a branch by its name - the work tree switches into the so-called "detached HEAD" state: that is, recording new commits won't place them on any branch (since no branch has been checked out, to begin with). This situation is completely normal but is something to be aware of and learn about [1, 2]. > Q2.

Basically it automates binary searching through the graph of commits - checking out sample commits and allowing the user to test whether the commit is broken or not and mark it accordingly. > And I have logs only for particular crash means last prints It's possible that I failed to parse this statement correctly but I can't see how it can be connected to Git. Debugging printouts of a running program have nothing to with the version control system used to manage its source code. Please take no offence but Q1 suggests you did not yet took an inroductory course on Git. If yes, it's a sure path to failure: the mailing list we're carrying out this discussion on is not for reciting Git manuals, - rather, it's for helping users solve genuine problems not covered by HOWTOs and books. So please take your time and educate yourself the basics of Git. Let me assure you it'll save your neck (and our precious time) later. 1. https://git-scm.com/docs/git-checkout#_detached_head 2. https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Internals-Git-References#ref_the_ref -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
