Yes, except you will be prompted for the commit message in the commit in combo 2. Unless you memorized the format of revert messages and look at the commit you are reverting, you will have a different sha-1.

You can force custom messages in a revert with a --no-commit option and then you can paste in the same message in both case.

Hope this helps.
