Your example requires that *both* revisions x and x+1 have to be
reverted. Reverting just one results in a conflict as you have seen:
because x and x+1 both modify the same line - it's not possible to just
revert the one revision without a conflict.

Use the command "revert to this revision" instead of "revert changes
from this revision".
