Ability to revert a single file

25 votes

Right now, I have a workaround where I revert an entire commit, select no when asked to immediately commit, then systematically got through and undo all other files.

It would be nice if I could simply right click on an individual file from a commit and get a similar flow to reverting a commit.

It would also be nice to choose specific changes in a file to revert

It would be very useful, if I could select a file from the commit view/pane like this: first check "View all files" check box, then open context menu on top of a single file (or why not allow selecting multiple files, or whole folder at once?) and then choose something like "revert file(s) to this commit".

And why not also add revert feature to sections of files: select first a file from the commit view, which opens it to the File View, then select all rows that you want to revert, and after that select "revert" from context menu, which would revert only selected sections, instead of whole file. Multi selection would be considered as plus in this too.

Bump! This seems like great value add!

Also, the suggestion for revert lines would be great on top of files. Revert lines could use the same gui as conflict resolution, that would be amazing!
