Revert a commit to a publish as code wiki page

To revert to an earlier revision for a page that you published as code, do one of the following actions:

  • If the commit is the most recent revision to a page, you can revert from the web portal.
  • If the commit is an earlier revision, with more commits having occurred in between, create a separate branch and revert the changes in that branch.

Revert from a recent revision from the web portal

  1. Preview any version by choosing the commit ID from the Revisions page for the selected file.

  2. Copy the full ID of the commit by selecting Copy-clone.

    If you receive an error message, you might need to create a local branch and make your changes manually as described in the next section.

  7. Select Create in the New Pull Request form.

  8. Select Complete merge to merge the changes into the main wiki branch. Optionally, add a check to the checkboxes to select post-completion options.

To view the reverted content, return to the wiki and refresh the browser.

Revert from earlier revisions using a different branch

To revert to an earlier committed version of a publish as code wiki page, one that isn't the immediate last revision, update a branch other than the main branch for the wiki, and then create a pull request to the main branch.

  1. Create a local branch of the main wiki branch.
  2. View the commit history and locate the commit that contains the changes you want to undo.
  3. Use the revert command to revert the desired commit.
  4. When a conflict arises, use the conflict resolution tool to resolve the issues.
  5. Commit the changes to your local branch.
  6. Push the local branch to the remote server.
  7. Create a pull request for your local branch into main.
  8. Complete the pull request.
