How to delete commits from git on Github and Bitbucket

Question

I accidentally pushed up files from my .idea directory in my Django project which I had in my .gitignore file. I am trying to completely delete the commit from my bitbucket repo

Answer 1

Even if the commits are HARD reset, unwanted commits would still show up in the history. If the history also needs to be reset, then I am afraid only way to do that is to delete and recreate the branch.
