revert

I'm experiencing the same issues as in this question: git status shows modifications, git checkout -- <file> doesn't remove them Git continues to show working directory modifications, even with git config --global core.autocrlf false : E:\_dev\github\Core [master +0 ~93 -0]> git config --get-all core.autocrlf false false (Note that I've even set the --system setting to be false ) Why does it appear that Git is still modifying my end of lines? Attempts to get rid of modifications Baseline E:\_dev\github\Core [master +0 ~93 -0]> git status # On branch master # Changes not staged for commit: #

I'm using Mercurial locally for a project (it's the only repo there's no pushing/pulling to/from anywhere else). To date it's got a linear history. However, the current thing I'm working on I've now realized is a terrible approach and I want to go back to the version before I started it and implement it a different way. I'm a bit confused with the branch / revert / update -C commands in Mercurial. Basically I want to revert to version 38 (currently on 45) and have my next commits have 38 as a parent and carry on from there. I don't care if revisions 39-45 are lost for ever or end up in a dead

How can I revert a range of commits in git? From looking at the gitrevisions documentation, I cannot see how to specify the range I need. For example: A -> B -> C -> D -> E -> HEAD I want to do the equivalent of: git revert B-D where the result would be: A -> B -> C -> D -> E -> F -> HEAD where F contains the reverse of B-D inclusive. What version of Git are you using? Reverting multiple commits in only supported in Git1.7.2+: see " Rollback to an old commit using revert multiple times. " for more details. The current git revert man page is only for the current Git version (1.7.4+). As the OP

I have found various examples of how to revert an SVN commit like svn merge -r [current_version]:[previous_version] [repository_url] or svn merge -c -[R] . But neither of them seems to work. I tried those commands and checked the files that were changed by hand. How do I revert a commit with revision number 1944? How do I check that the revert has been done (without looking in the actual file to the changes have been reverted)? Lazy Badger Both examples must work, but svn merge -r UPREV:LOWREV . undo range svn merge -c -REV . undo single revision in this syntax - if current dir is WC and (as

I was working with a friend on a project, and he edited a bunch of files that shouldn't have been edited. Somehow I merged his work into mine, either when I pulled it, or when I tried to just pick the specific files out that I wanted. I've been looking and playing for a long time, trying to figure out how to remove the commits that contain the edits to those files, it seems to be a toss up between revert and rebase, and there are no straightforward examples, and the docs assume I know more than I do. So here is a simplified version of the question: Given the following scenario, how do I remove
