undelete

It is a fairly common requirement to support undeletes or delayed/batched deletions for data services. What I'm wondering is how to implement this in a RESTful way. I'm torn between a few different options (none of which seems terribly attractive to me). Common across these different options, I believe, is the need for an API which returns all resource marked as deleted for a particular resource type. Here are some options I've thought about and some of their pros/cons: Options to mark resource as deleted: Use HTTP DELETE to mark the resource as deleted. Use HTTP PUT/POST to update deleted

We have accidentally deleted the 'tags' folder from our Subversion repository where we only intended to delete one specific tag. What is the easiest way to get the 'tags' folder back? We use TortoiseSVN as our client and I thought that when I go to the repo browser and show log, there will be something like "revert changes from this revision" similarly to what you can see in a similar dialog on your working copy.

Since one of the files is not part of my history but only in the snapshots, the first original commit now also contains the deletion of this file. How can I undo that? At first I thought this was the opposite of How do I remove sensitive files from git’s history , but actually I don't want to insert a file into history but just remove the deletion from history. git checkout <commit> <filename> Tobias Kienzler I got it: git tag originalHead # just in case git rebase -i <id of the parent of the

I made something very stupid. I made a commit using git commit (file edits + new files) (C). Then I made amend last commit. Then I deleted all files recursively (!) using git rm -r Then I made another git commit (C). A-B-C ↑ master Is there any way to undelete the files but keep the changes I had in my first commit? (C) I'd rather do not go back to (B). I tried git reset --soft head^, so then the git status lists files I deleted, then I did git checkout, but still no luck. I don't even know if it's possible. manojlds Do yourself a favour and do not do git checkout <hash> like the other answer
