Actually, this is a perfectly good response. If some commit breaks, and it's not immediately clear what/why it is broken, and the original author is not immediately available, and you can definately verify that reverting just one commit makes things work again, then reverting and fixing later is the better approach. You seem to be thinking that reverting a commit is an attack against you; again, as I have said, don't take things personal. We all want the code to be the best it can be, and if someone discovers a bug with an implementation, that is a *good* thing. > 2. breaking things in the system on purpose, even for good technical > reasons as it will upset users as happened now.
