revert a committed change in SVN

This command can be used to revert a particular changeset in the local copy.

I find this useful because I frequently import files into the wrong directory. After the import it says "Committed revision 123" or similar. to revert this change in the working copy do:

svn merge -c -123 .

(don't forget the .) and then commit.

Add a shadow to picture

Please take notice that if you are going to use an JPG file for shadow effect,

let change -background none to -background white!

Because -background none make a transparent effect while JPG doesn't support transparent! And when viewing, you will get a bacl box!

So we will use an white background under! We can use other color as well!

revert one or more changesets in svn

Reverts the changes that were made in a particular revision, in the local working copy. You must commit the local copy to the repository to make it permanent.

This is very useful for undoing a change.

You can revert multiple changes by specifying numbers wider apart; Just remember to put the highest number first.
