New Revision: 1449790

URL: http://svn.apache.org/r1449790
Log:
* subversion/svn/svn.c
  (svn_cl__cmd_table): Improve help text of 'svn revert'. It can handle
   more than just files, and there are other commands that don't require
   network access but don't brag about it. Most importantly, point out that
   this command cannot be used to undo already committed changes, and point
   people wanting to do that into the right direction.
