If you’ve checked out the git repo, you can go back to any point in the history and build that revision.

That is, until DOGE decides to rewrite (git) history.

Is that possible? Every commit id includes the hash of the parent commit forming a chain.

Yes, you modify the history uodating every commit after the changed one and then force push. Git has built in ommands to help. Anyone who has the repository cloned can tell if that happened because all the hashes will be different.
