Check current version after revert

I'd use `bzr revno` or `bzr log`

If you use a checkout you may want to experiment with:

   bzr revno

and

   bzr revno --tree

Hi

I tried both but I get the revision for the complete repository. What I am
looking for is the revno I have reverted to?

Any ideas?

Hi

Same with these. I get the revno for the complete repository and not the
revision I have reverted to.

I hoped bzr info should contain the information but it is not.

What do you mean by 'revno for the complete repository' ?

A revno is a revision number and as such identifies a branch tip, an entry point in the ancestry graph.

A repository for bazaar is a store where revisions are stored and can be shared between branches if needed.

A branch is defined by a tip and a repository where, among others, the tip revision and all the revisions in its ancestry are stored.

A working tree is build from a revision by creating on disk all files described by the revision in a given state.

A working tree keeps track of the revisions it is based on to detect modifications, this reference tree is called the 'basis' tree.

'bzr revno' tells you the revision number of this basis tree.

After a 'bzr revert' the working tree has the same content as the basis tree, that's the contract of the 'revert' command.

So both Markus and I assumed that you were referring to the basis tree revno when you said 'active', if our assumption was wrong, please tell us what you call the 'active version'.

Thanks for the informative description.

What I was looking for is a way to get the revno for the version after I have done revert according to below.

bzr revert 23 (23 is just an example)

... away for some time and now when I am back I wonder which version I did revert to

Is there such a command?

bzr revno

I confirm Ander's problem. Revno doesn't change at all.

erpadmin@uberp03:~/ocode/client-web$ bzr revno
5

erpadmin@uberp03:~/ocode/client-web$ bzr update
Tree is up to date at revision 5 of branch /home/erpadmin/ocode/client-web

erpadmin@uberp03:~/ocode/client-web$ bzr revno
5

(ok, version 5, now I revert to version 2)

erpadmin@uberp03:~/ocode/client-web$ bzr revert -r 2
erpadmin@uberp03:~/ocode/client-web$

(ok, it seems it reverted adequately. I confirm that it deleted files and that left the folder accordingly to rev 2)

erpadmin@uberp03:~/ocode/client-web$ bzr revno
5

(It still shows rev 5. So I guess something is wrong. Below the details of my bazaar version)

erpadmin@uberp03:~/ocode/client-web$ bzr version

@mdelm: use 'bzr update -r<revno>' instead of 'bzr revert -r<revno>' and experiment with 'bzr revno' and 'bzr revno --tree'

Revert reverts the contents of the file, but not the revision of the
tree. This is intentional. It is one way you can commit a rollback of
changes. (bzr revert -r -2 foo; bzr commit -m "I didn't mean that")

Yeap, that's fine. It works.

I applied then a sequence to move around versions when necessary:

bzr pull --> brings you to the last

and then
bzr update -r<version> --> goes back to where you want to
bzr clean-tree --> delete your changed files not to be commited (if any)
bzr revert -r<version> --> set modified/added files as original.

That permits you track the tree.
Pretty good ! Thanks.
