Restoring old revisions from SVN repository

Restoring entire tree

We have to different options of restoring old versions using svn. We can either restore entire svn tree along with subfolders and files or we can restore just one single file.

To restore entire tree or single file we can use:

svn export -r <revision_number> <path_to_file_or_directory>

Note that this will result into overwriting of existing files / directories. Hence this should be used only after committing latest changes, so that important work is not lost.


Restoring a file

To restore a file to some previous revision we can use:

svn update -r <revision_number> <file_name>
