I just pushed a commit to remote main instead of my branch! Help! We merged two features to main but now only one of them needs to go to production without losing the code for the other one ASAP - what do we do? I messed up my branch on rebase, and I can't figure out what happened, but I think I lost my work, can you help? I accidentally put a secret into GitHub and I need it to look like that commit never happened or I might get fired! In this session, we'll discuss the GIT commands of Amend, Reset, Revert, Rebase, Bisect, and Cherry-Picking to perform surgery on our repository when the stuff hits the fan.
