Hmm, I find that hard to believe. But maybe I'm missing something.

Can you checkout Linus' master and then revert that commit?

cheers

$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git linux-git

$ git checkout
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.

$ git revert 764041e0f43cc7846f6d8eb246d65b53cc06c764 -m 1
error: Mainline was specified but commit 764041e0f43cc7846f6d8eb246d65b53cc06c764 is not a merge.
fatal: revert failed

How can I checkout Linus' master and then revert that commit?

Cheers,

Christian
