Remove an old Git commit from a branch without using a reverse patch?

Viewed 21937

I have a master branch like this..

A -- B -- C -- D -- E -- HEAD

Is there any command that remove one of a old commit and retain the others, say commit C?

finally it becomes like this

A -- B -- D -- E -- HEAD

I know that we can use a reverse patch and apply a new commit with reverse patch to remove commit C, but the tree structure will not be so clear and looks bulky, i.e.

A -- B -- C -- D -- E -- C(apply reverse patch) -- HEAD

Anyone knows?
