I have a commit made by a developer in the remote Git repository hosted in VSTS that needs to be rolled back. From Visual Studio, without going to command prompt how do I reverse the commit?
Inside Visual Studio 2015 how to reverse / undo commit in Git?

For the English language version:
Team Explore > Branchs > Right click on Branch > View History
A list will appear with the commits, right-clicking on some you have the Revert option.

If the code is already in the repository in VSTS, you will need:
- Reverse the commit locally
- Make
push -force
It is not possible to reverse commit in a repository directly in VSTS, so both steps. What is more a characteristic of Git than of VSTS.
In Git you always interact with your repository and send it to the server. Git is a DVCS , not a CVCS, the changes are always local and replicated to the repositories, unless you connect via SSH to a Git server, which is not supported in VSTS.
