You could undo the change by forcing the HEAD (reference) back to
the commit prior to the accidental one. I've never actually done
this before, but something like this, perhaps:

        % git reset --hard <SHA1>
        % git push origin master

This should restore the history to what it was prior to accidental
commit.
