title: Reverting to a previous version git repo
body: <p>Hello so I've done this before I just completely forgot how. </p>
  
  <p>What I am trying to do is I have a remote on my github repo and I have an old version that I would like to revert to meaning I can commit from it and it would now be at the top of the repo if that makes sense since my current repo is having some issues and I want to go back to a specific version. </p>
  
  <p>I remeber slightly what I was able to find out last time which worked out beautfully and that was I checked out the version I want and then I created a new remote or split the remote or something, added the version on to the new one and then merged the branches or remotes. It was something along those lines, I just don't remember exaclty and I would appreciate someone guiding me through as I am unable to find the old posts I was previously looking at. </p>
  
  <p>This is a Swift Xcode project</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance for all of the help</p>
