You can also change the A' commit title to "fixup! original_title"
while reverting (there is no --fixup argument like "git commit" has),
then git rebase -i would reorder the todo file for you.

git revert gets confused by the resulting empty change but you can
"git rebase --continue", or now that both are next to the other just
remove them.
