Well yes, but if you used a compiled language you have to make a new release based on this commit.

What I mean is, if you have v2 of your software that introduces a bugfix for module A that's perfectly fine and a bugfix for module B that breaks everything, you can just roll back just module B directly with your deployment pipeline.

There's no need to go back to the code base and make a new release.
