462<div class="sectionbody">
463<div class="paragraph">
464<p>Given one or more existing commits, revert the changes that the
465related patches introduce, and record some new commits that record
466them. This requires your working tree to be clean (no modifications
467from the HEAD commit).</p>
468</div>
469<div class="paragraph">
470<p>Note: <em>git revert</em> is used to record some new commits to reverse the
471effect of some earlier commits (often only a faulty one). If you want to
472throw away all uncommitted changes in your working directory, you
473should see <a href="git-reset.html">git-reset(1)</a>, particularly the <code>--hard</code> option. If
474you want to extract specific files as they were in another commit, you
475should see <a href="git-restore.html">git-restore(1)</a>, specifically the <code>--source</code>
476option. Take care with these alternatives as
477both will discard uncommitted changes in your working directory.</p>
478</div>
479<div class="paragraph">
480<p>See "Reset, restore and revert" in <a href="git.html">git(1)</a> for the differences
481between the three commands.</p>

492<p>Commits to revert.
493For a more complete list of ways to spell commit names, see
494<a href="gitrevisions.html">gitrevisions(7)</a>.
495Sets of commits can also be given but no traversal is done by
496default, see <a href="git-rev-list.html">git-rev-list(1)</a> and its <code>--no-walk</code>
497option.</p>
498</dd>
499<dt class="hdlist1">-e</dt>
500<dt class="hdlist1">--edit</dt>
501<dd>
502<p>With this option, <em>git revert</em> will let you edit the commit
503message prior to committing the revert. This is the default if
504you run the command from a terminal.</p>
505</dd>
506<dt class="hdlist1">-m parent-number</dt>
507<dt class="hdlist1">--mainline parent-number</dt>
508<dd>
509<p>Usually you cannot revert a merge because you do not know which
510side of the merge should be considered the mainline. This
511option specifies the parent number (starting from 1) of
512the mainline and allows revert to reverse the change
513relative to the specified parent.</p>
514<div class="paragraph">
515<p>Reverting a merge commit declares that you will never want the tree changes
516brought in by the merge. As a result, later merges will only bring in tree
517changes introduced by commits that are not ancestors of the previously
518reverted merge. This may or may not be what you want.</p>
519</div>
520<div class="paragraph">
521<p>See the <a href="howto/revert-a-faulty-merge.html">revert-a-faulty-merge How-To</a> for
522more details.</p>
523</div>
524</dd>
525<dt class="hdlist1">--no-edit</dt>
526<dd>
527<p>With this option, <em>git revert</em> will not start the commit
528message editor.</p>
529</dd>
530<dt class="hdlist1">--cleanup=&lt;mode&gt;</dt>
531<dd>
532<p>This option determines how the commit message will be cleaned up before
533being passed on to the commit machinery. See <a href="git-commit.html">git-commit(1)</a> for more
534details. In particular, if the <em>&lt;mode&gt;</em> is given a value of <code>scissors</code>,
535scissors will be appended to <code>MERGE_MSG</code> before being passed on in the case
536of a conflict.</p>
537</dd>
538<dt class="hdlist1">-n</dt>
539<dt class="hdlist1">--no-commit</dt>
540<dd>
541<p>Usually the command automatically creates some commits with
542commit log messages stating which commits were
543reverted. This flag applies the changes necessary
544to revert the named commits to your working tree
545and the index, but does not make the commits. In addition,
546when this option is used, your index does not have to match
547the HEAD commit. The revert is done against the
548beginning state of your index.</p>
549<div class="paragraph">
550<p>This is useful when reverting more than one commits'
551effect to your index in a row.</p>
552</div>
553</dd>
554<dt class="hdlist1">-S[&lt;keyid&gt;]</dt>
555<dt class="hdlist1">--gpg-sign[=&lt;keyid&gt;]</dt>
556<dt class="hdlist1">--no-gpg-sign</dt>
557<dd>
558<p>GPG-sign commits. The <code>keyid</code> argument is optional and
559defaults to the committer identity; if specified, it must be
560stuck to the option without a space. <code>--no-gpg-sign</code> is useful to
561countermand both <code>commit.gpgSign</code> configuration variable, and
562earlier <code>--gpg-sign</code>.</p>
