git log, copy paste hash, git checkout

If you have a dirty wd, stash.

But, to be honest, I almost never perform that action, and when I do I use the web browser.

You remember the hash of your June commit 3 years ago??

Web browser... for a local repo? Or do you mean you don't have a solution if your repo isn't on GitHub or you don't have an internet connection handy?

(You should also time yourself on your web interface by the way.)

    ...which is what the git log above is there for.

    Yeah, local repo. You know, git is not GitHub. :)

    Just paste the hash commit in the HEAD selector or even in the URL.

So a graphical interface then? I'm sure you can see why using a GUI for other functions is just as useful.
