SVN undo delete before commit

Question

If you delete a directory from an SVN working copy, but haven't committed yet, it's not obvious how to get it back. Google even suggests "svn undo delete before commit" as a common query when you type "svn undo d", but the search results are unhelpful.

edit: I'd like a solution that works in subversion 1.4.4

Answer 1

1) do

svn revert . --recursive

2) parse output for errors like

"Failed to revert 'dir1/dir2' -- try updating instead."

3) call svn up for each of error directories:

svn up dir1/dir2

Answer 2

svn revert deletedDirectory

Here's the documentation for the svn revert command.

EDIT

If deletedDirectory was deleted using rmdir and not svn rm , you'll need to do

svn update deletedDirectory

instead.

Answer 3

对我有用的是

svn revert --depth infinity deletedDir

Answer 4

从您删除的目录上方的级别执行（递归）还原操作。

Answer 5

为了使它成为一个单一的衬垫你可以尝试类似的东西：

svn status | cut -d ' ' -f 8 | xargs svn revert

Answer 6

The simplest solution I could find was to delete the parent directory from the working copy (with rm -rf, not svn delete), and then run svn update in the grandparent. Eg, if you deleted a/b/c, rm -rf a/b, cd a, svn up. That brings everything back. Of course, this is only a good solution if you have no other uncommitted changes in the parent directory that you want to keep.

Hopefully this page will be at the top of the results next time I google this question. It would be even better if someone suggested a cleaner method, of course.

Answer 7

在提交之前，您可以删除该文件夹并更新父目录：

rm -r some_dir

svn update some_dir_parent
