NAME

       hg revert - restore files to their checkout state

SYNOPSIS

       hg revert [OPTION]... [-r REV] [NAME]...

DESCRIPTION

       Note   To check out earlier revisions, you should use hg update REV.  To cancel an uncommitted merge (and
              lose your changes), use hg merge --abort.

       With  no  revision  specified,  revert the specified files or directories to the contents they had in the
       parent of the working directory.  This restores  the  contents  of  files  to  an  unmodified  state  and
       unschedules  adds,  removes,  copies,  and  renames.  If  the working directory has two parents, you must
       explicitly specify a revision.

       Using the -r/--rev or -d/--date options, revert the given files or directories to their states  as  of  a
       specific  revision.  Because  revert does not change the working directory parents, this will cause these
       files to appear modified. This can be helpful to "back out" some or all of  an  earlier  change.  See  hg
       backout for a related method.

       Modified  files  are  saved  with  a  .orig  suffix  before  reverting.   To  disable  these backups, use
       --no-backup. It is possible to store the backup files in a custom directory relative to the root  of  the
       repository by setting the ui.origbackuppath configuration option.

       See hg help dates for a list of formats valid for -d/--date.

       See hg help backout for a way to reverse the effect of an earlier changeset.

       Returns 0 on success.
