Thanks for the suggestion.

Unfortunately, this is what I feared.  Suppose I find 
commit hash abcdef for 20250215 and hash ghijkl for
20250315, i.e, the 2 commits roughly a month apart.
I can do

% git checkout abcdef

Now, I do the usual buildworld/installworld including 
the etcupdate steps.  I need to rebuild drm-515-kmod
port.  Test to see if drm works again,

% git checkout main   (to recover the main branch).
% git checkout ghijkl  

Repeat the world dance.
