revert
Synopsis
svn revert path
...
Revert any local changes to a file or directory and
resolve any conflicted states. svn
revert
not only reverts the contents of an item in
your working copy, but also any property changes. Finally, you
can use it to undo any scheduling operations that you may have
done (e.g., files scheduled for addition or deletion can be
“unscheduled”).

Examples
Discard changes to a file:
$ svn revert foo.c
Reverted foo.c
If you want to revert a whole directory of files, use the
--recursive
flag:
$ svn revert --recursive .
Reverted newdir/afile
Reverted foo.c
Reverted bar.txt
Tip
If you provide no targets to svn revert
, it does nothing—to
protect you from accidentally losing changes in your working
copy, svn revert
requires
you to provide at least one target.
