Rollback is too strong of name for this. Checkpoints would be better.
The idea is to record the total system state at convenient moments and
then allow moving back to the checkpointed state. The object store
supports this, but the rest of the state in .git/* isn't being
recorded.

rsync -a .git /somewhere/safe

I fear that what you ask becomes a chicken-and-egg scenario: where/how
is this checkpointing information going to be stored? If it's tightly
integrated with Git, what happens when you want to roll-back a
checkpoint-restore?
