My bug is not in the latest release so "You rollback production to the previous release version, revert changes in git" won't help.
"Fix the bug and then commit" is exactly what I was referring to as ship a bugfix.
The problem here is not how to ship a bugfix or how to revert/rollback changes. The problem here is what if I need to send code to production if the trunk is unstable.
In my environment a "bug" is not always like that. I can be something that has been there for awhile so you cannot roll back. Also the bug may be due to something missing that should be there. The bug may be related to an essential feature that you cannot just roll back entirely. You can't roll that back. Plus you also have environmental issues like a new version of a browser ships and you have to deal with something that a rollback cannot fix.
HOWEVER, if you discover a bug close to when that code was released, then rollback and breathe a sigh of relief, and fix it un-rushed.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
