revert

vb revert [OPTIONS] [FILE ...]

Description

Revert to the current repository version of FILE, or to the baseline VERSION specified with -r flag.

If FILE was part of a rename operation, both the original file and the renamed file are reverted.

Using a directory name for any of the FILE arguments is the same as using every subdirectory and file beneath that directory.

Revert all files if no file name is provided.

If a file is reverted accidentally, it can be restored using the vb undo command.

Options

--noundo

Do not record changes in the undo/redo log.

-r, --revision VERSION

Revert given FILE(s) back to given VERSION
