9. Reverting broken commits
In case you committed something really broken and wish to undo it completely,
you can use the 'cvs admin -o' command, which removes entries from the
revision history of a file. It does not undo the changes related to that
revision, but for the corner case that you remove the last revision (and only
then!) this amounts to reverting a commit.
Should you commit something really broken, notice it quickly and wish to undo
it completely, the 'cvs admin -o' command can be used as a last resort. This
command removes entries from the revision history of a file. For the corner
case of removing the last revision (and only then!) this amounts to reverting
a commit. The HEAD version is not affected by removing revisions that came
before, only revision history will be lost and holes left in the revision
numbering. ONLY EVER use this command to delete the LAST revision of a file.
In short, if you use this improperly you can wreak permanent havoc. Employ it
only if you are completely sure of what you are doing.
