Given one existing commit, revert the change the patch introduces, and record a new commit that records it. This requires your working tree to be clean (no modifications from the HEAD commit). This is based on what Linus posted to the list, with enhancements he suggested, including the use of -M to attempt reverting renames. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
