Yes. Keep the vcs command recommendations simple. At least mention idioms
which likely to apply across a wider range of version control systems.
The revert works with svn, hg and bzr. Using patch is not going to work
on Windoze unless cygwin has been installed.
You don't need cygwin, just something much smaller with "GNU" in its
name: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/patch.htm
(yes, the suggestion is already in the dev guide)
Unfortunately gnuwin32 patch doesn't play well with Windows 7.
I remember giving up on it completely and installing cygwin. This page
seems to explain the details:
