Hi git mavens,
I've used a script called svnrevert in the svn version that reverts any changed file in its argument(s), which may be directories, /and/ sets the modification date to the date at which the file was last checked in. I'd like the same functionality in git. Her'es the subversion version:
#!/bin/bash # Revert file(s) or all modified files in a directory # and touch them back to the checkin date for f in "$@" do if [ -d "$f" ]; then $0 `svn st "$f" | grep "^M" | sed 's/^M *//'` else if svn revert "$f"; then changed="`svn info "$f" | grep 'Last Changed Date:' | sed 's/ *(.*//'`" touch -t "`date -j -f 'Last Changed Date: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %z' "$changed" '+%Y%m%d%H%M.%S'`" "$f" fi fi done
_,,,^..^,,,_ best, Eliot
