NAME

App::Pinto::Command::reset - reset stack to a prior revision

VERSION

version 0.0995

SYNOPSIS

  pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT reset [OPTIONS] REVISION

DESCRIPTION

!! THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL !!

This command moves the head of the stack to a prior revision, thereby discarding subsequent revisions. See the revert command to restore the stack to a prior revision by creating a new revision.

COMMAND ARGUMENTS

The arguments are the name of the stack and the id of the revision to reset to. If the stack is not specified, then it defaults to whichever stack is currently marked as the default. The stack can also be specified using the --stack option. Some examples:

  pinto ... reset af01256e          # Reset default stack to revision af01256e
  pinto ... reset mystack af01256e  # Reset mystack to revision af0125e

COMMAND OPTIONS

--force

Force reset even if the revision is not actually an ancestor. Normally, you can only reset to a revision that the stack has actually been at.

--stack=NAME
-s NAME

Peform reset on the stack with the given NAME. Defaults to the name of whichever stack is currently marked as the default stack. Use the stacks command to see the stacks in the repository. This option is silently ignored if the stack is specified as a command argument instead.
