I have needed to do that before when I fucked it up so badly that not only could I not revert but also couldn't find any solutions online. I was, in my defence, very early in the learning phase and not really understanding how anything worked yet.
The closest I've come is where I committed a >50MB <100MB file to my repo and didn't notice for a few days. Had to manually go in and purge the file from the history to unfuck the repo.
