How to try running project at old git commit
Answered
I have committed various new commits to my project. Now i want to see projects output at earlier commits (like 2-3 commits back) by running project at that earlier commit ,and finally come back to my recent commit and carry forward my development . Please guide me.

Just checkout the revision you need, built and run.
E.g. if you use Git, to to the Log tab, right-click the commit you need and use Checkout revision.
I did not see Checkout revision. I may see Checkout Revision 'blablabla'. Is this the same?
Dmytro Simonenko yes, that's the option. You will then checkout specific revision.
Thank you very much for your quick reply. The interface is intuitively difficult for me to understand. It would be cool to add an option for newbies in which a pop-up window with a hint was displayed when the cursor was hovered over any button.

Indeed, tooltips can be helpful but we are trying not to overload the interface with all kinds of information. Please feel free to open feature quest if you have an idea how to improve this on our youtrack.
