Key word there is "require". Having that automation set up is super convenient and a pretty important factor in making things more productive, not contesting that.

The other side of the equation is that if I break something, I want to make the smallest change possible that fixes it, so as to avoid confounding variables if it doesn't work. Off the top of my head:

  * I don't want to make things worse by messing up the rollback due to stress
  * I don't want to trigger a build and wait for CI to run and build
  * I don't want to depend on my build not being perfectly reproducible (e.g. because the problem comes from a bad dependency upgrade and the rollback rebuilds with the bad dependency)

What I do want is a really simple way to just tell my system "You know that thing you were running 5 minutes ago? Please go back to running that again".
