"unadd" a file to svn before commit

Question

I was in the middle of doing a recursive svn add/commit, and a folder which did not have the proper ignore properties was included. I've got about 100 uploaded binary files versioned now, but I haven't committed yet.

What is the easiest way to 'undo' this, without deleting all the documents?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Try svn revert filename for every file you don't need and haven't yet committed. Or alternatively do svn revert -R folder for the problematic folder and then re-do the operation with correct ignoring configuration.

Answer 2

Use svn revert --recursive folder_name
