Re: [fossil-users] how to revert everything

Hi,

You can also use fossil ui to move the error commits to a new branch and
close the leaf of that new branch.

I am not sure if you need to move each commits or only the ancestor to the
new branch.

   totally sure on Fossil's philosophy about this; use fossil commit -f to

 How can I do this? revert -r doesn't allow me to simply specify the root

Wow, that was not intuitive or easy for me (coming from svn). But looking at 
the timeline now, I do like the result.

Moving just the ancestor (first error commit) automatically moved all later 
commits. Then I also had to update my local workarea specifically to the latest 
good revision. I would have expected a simple 'fossil update' to automatically 
go back to the new leaf of my current branch.

Thank you Bill and and Alexandre!
