A working copy can consist of files and directories at multiple
different revisions.

You can call 'svn update' on an individual file or directory to update
it to a given revision, regardless of the revision the rest of the tree
is at.

As for rolling back changes, you're probably looking for 'svn merge',
and it works just the same on an individual file or directory as it does
on your whole working copy.

Perhaps if you give us an example of what you're trying to do we could
be of more help, because it's not clear what you're having trouble with
from this email.
