- Committing hotfixes
Commit all uncommitted hotfixes to make the hotfixes a permanent part of the system.
- Rolling back hotfixes
If an uncommitted hotfix introduces unwanted changes to your system, you can remove it by rolling it back. You cannot roll back committed hotfixes. If you have more than one uncommitted hotfix, roll them all back and reinstall the hotfixes you want to keep.
