Re: Possible bug delete and revert

I don't understand. The definition of 'svn revert' is 'please make
this file exactly the way it does in the repository'. It not only
reverts file contents, but reverts delete scheduling. That's what you
asked for, and that's what you got. It's one of the only commands
that actually destroys information, so you need to be careful with it.
