Upon realising my mistake what I believe I did is:
1) Performed a `git pull` and then looked at `git log` to find the IDs of my commits (and also to check if anyone else had made commits in the meantime - nobody did but in the end I decided to use specific commit IDs when reverting anyway).
commit 8e00301a0c7c9825d314d70cc16ca7b0ae874d12
Author: Stephen Gordon <stephen.a.gordon@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu Nov 24 17:06:31 2011 -0500
Worked around Author_Group issue in Musician's Guide to supply PDF version.
commit 71128b6bd8fadde9c4443015b7a4f7cb1d1b8f11
Author: Stephen Gordon <stephen.a.gordon@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu Nov 24 16:17:54 2011 -0500
Added Musician's Guide for F16 - No PDF at this time due to FOP issues.
commit 101de22af4ab426ff797b0ce01f0fd4192e65461
Author: Tadashi Jokagi <elf@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Wed Nov 23 16:20:26 2011 +0900
* updated Fedora_Live_Images for f16. (ja-JP)
2) Peeled them back using `git revert`:
git revert 8e00301a0c7c9825d314d70cc16ca7b0ae874d12
git revert 71128b6bd8fadde9c4443015b7a4f7cb1d1b8f11
3) Used `git diff 101de22af4ab426ff797b0ce01f0fd4192e65461` to check that my working copy was now identical to the previous 'known good' commit.
4) At this point I performed the `git commit` and `git push`, I did consider doing a rebase to squash the two commits together but decided that for whoever came along after me it would be clearer if there was a 1 to 1 mapping between my initial (bad) commits and the ones undoing them.
I didn't get the error you pasted relating to the database file, I'm not sure why this would be especially since we would have been working against the same version of the web.git repo. As per my other email I have since been on a bit of a voyage of discovery and worked out what I had done wrong. With that information in hand the Musicians Guide has now been published for Fedora 16 :).
