<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">The "Revert [tag] message" is the default message generated by the 'git revert' command. Of course you would have to be using a git clone of LLVM instead of
an SVN checkout in order to run 'git revert'. This command is the equivalent of 'svn merge –r' run from the top-level directory. I believe svn commands will operate only on the directories below the current working directory, so I speculate that you ran
the svn command from the lib subdirectory instead of from the top level, and thus missed the tests that were part of your original commit.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">There's too much activity to automatically revert anything, so you need to commit a new change that effectively reverts the original patch -- keeping in mind that someone else might have changed some of the same files, and/or lines, in
the interim. Here's how I do it.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Update your local master, and extract the change using svn diff or git diff to a patch file. Then use patch to apply it locally, using the '-R' flag for reverse, and fix any merge conflicts. If your tests run clean, update your source
one last time just in case, then commit with a new message indicating that you reverted it with a note on why, etc...<u></u><u></u></p>
