Message-ID: <20050503100624.A29266@cox.net>

```
Adds a cg-undo command which takes a commit ID and resets HEAD
to the parent of the commit ID...refreshing the tree. This undoes
a single commit or a series of commits.

It doesn't seem very optional now.

What's wrong with parent-id?

You talk way too much, I think. I'd just do

	echo "Rewinding $HEAD -> $PARENT" >&2

You really don't want to do this if the tree has any local
modifications.


Please make sure the commit you are rewinding to is an ancestor of your
current HEAD (there should be something like separate cg-branch-rm for
killing enemy branches).

Yep, changed.

Missed it...changed to use parent-id.

Done.

Ugh, yes. I added a check for this.

Added a check for this as well as verifying we have an argument.

Thanks. I took it, hacked upon it for a while and then committed
something similar but largely rewritten as cg-admin-uncommit. ;-)
