Question

I messed up on my SVN repository and now need to revert the entire repository from revision 28 to 24 and don\'t want to deal with diffs or conflicts. Is there a quick and si

Answer 1

If you have access to the SVN server, you can just edit path/db/current, put the old revision number you want to revert to (here: 24) there, and remove no longer needed revision files (i.e. 25, 26, 27, 28) from path/db/revs/0/. At least this worked for me today, after I had accidentally removed a directory in the repository.
