Doing revert does not mean breaking nor unbreaking master. It's just
about canceling changes. You're not able to break master if you have a
good test coverage – and I'm sure Rally has.

Sure, reverting a patch means that a mistake has been made somewhere,
*but* the point is that having a few mistakes done and reverted is far
less a problem than freezing an entire project because everyone fears a
mistake might be made. Just learn to make mistake, fix/revert them, and
change fast. Not freeze everyone in terror of something being done. :)
