The fact that some idiotic SVN usage exists is not an excuse to break long-standing git users. "revert" comes from bk, and quite frankly, I object _very_ strongly to taking naming from something that is very obviously the inferior system (SVN) over something very obviously superior (BK and git). Feel free to add other "helper" aliases that are actually _new_ and have no pre-existing git meaning, but not things like this. Not breaking existing git usage just because somebody is too stupid and/or lazy to try to learn a new word.
