Re: Revert to a previous version

svn co project
<edit foo.c, adding bugs>
svn ci foo.c (commits to r348)
<realize terrible error>
svn merge -r348:347 foo.c
svn ci foo.c (commits 349)

note the ordering of the revision numbers in the merge command. what this
really says is "make a diff between revision 348 and 347, and apply it
immediately to foo.c"

if you are trying to revert a directory tree with moves or deletes in it, and
are getting arcane errors, try the --ignore-ancestry flag.

hope this helps.
