Firstly, check the commits:

Author: aselims <selim.2k@gmail.com>

    time format.

commit 43032e348bf0015759836c4e5e035d66c62d05f1
Author: aselims <selim.2k@gmail.com>
Date:   Tue Jul 14 19:37:09 2015 +0200

    webFragment for support.
...

Then checkout the file you need from a specific revision
git checkout <revision> -- <path_to_file>

git checkout 43032e348bf0015759836c4e5e035d66c62d05f1 -- ./app/src/main/java/co/rahala/selim/events/util/WebFragment.java

The file is already now at its original place.
