Ideally I'd like to revert that commit somehow and do two smaller

assume that this would involve doing a new commit that is "the
opposite" of the incorrect one, and then replying the changes one a time.
How would I do this?
I don't know the "right" answer, but having done this myself, this is
what I do: edit the commit comment to better describe the "small fix"
and then call the checkin of all of the other stuff as a "checkpoint" as
part of building that other feature. I am paranoid and frequently do
"checkpoint" checkins of a branch (typically trunk) even if the code is
not yet properly working. I just want to capture the state of the world
before anything bad happens. It's also a good way to get the stuff off
of my local machine (in addition to the near real-time backups that are
also happening, of course).
