Revert Changes in Source Control
Revert Local Changes
With SVN, if you want to roll back local changes in a file, right-click the file and select
Source Control > Revert Local Changes and Release Locks. This command releases
locks and reverts to the version in the last sandbox update (that is, the last version you
synchronized or retrieved from the repository). If your file is not locked, the menu option
is Source Control > Revert Local Changes. To abandon all local changes, select all the
files in the Current Folder browser before you select the command.
With Git, right-click a file and select Source Control > Revert Local Changes. Git does
not have locks. To remove all local changes, right-click a blank space in the Current
Folder browser and select Source Control > Branches. In the Branches dialog box,
click Revert to Head.
Revert a File to a Specified Revision
(^1) Right-click a file in the Current Folder browser and select Source Control > Revert
using SVN or Revert using Git.
(^2) In the Revert Files dialog box, choose a revision to revert to. Select a revision to view
information about the change such as the author, date, and log message.
(^3) Click Revert.
If you revert a file to an earlier revision and then make changes, you cannot commit the
file until you resolve the conflict with the repository history.
