SVN - How to make an older revision the head revision?

up vote18down votefavorite 6	One of the files in my current head revision got corrupted. I want to make an older revision of that file the head revision as usually people sync to head revsion in my project. How to do that? svn share|edit edited Nov 7 '08 at 8:38 Peter Parker 10.9k11541 asked Nov 7 '08 at 6:30 Manoj 1,62952446

You should revert all changes since that old reversion. In principle, svn merge -rHEAD:oldrev filename svn commit -m "rolled back to oldrev" should do. The later revisions are still there, but reverted.
