We will use the example repository from the last section and ensure that the master branch is pointing to 34acc37:
$ git checkout master && git reset --hard 34acc37
In the previous command, we only use the first seven characters (34acc37) of the commit ID; this is fine as long as the abbreviated ID that is used is unique in the repository.
