* suggests using gitk or something like that;
  * you can use GUI select commits and compare them in its history-window
    * it can also write a commit to a file
  * all you may need to remember is "git reset --hard [branch]"
    which reverts all changes in all version-controlled files
    (not-version-controlled files are kept as is)

* you can also use other VCS locally, to which you are familiar
* you can also use tools like cgit or gitweb
