You find quick alias to be a useful replacement for "svn revert -R <file>" (aka "hg revert <file>" and "bg revert <file>"): git config --global alias.revert-file "checkout HEAD --" Once you run this command, you can now do "git revert-file <file>" which I personally find very handy. Sometimes I only want to revert one file, and not all of the files in the working directory, which is what "git reset --hard" will do. (Note that "git revert" does something else useful, but which is not the same as "hg revert", "bk revert" and "svn revert". Oh well, nobody ever said DSCM's had to be consistent.) - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
