Ok, thanks for the advice (learning more than the *very* basics of git is on my todo list). So would I just do 'git revert 4a4bc9db5c3d824edea51495b8b3d2cd860d260c'. That comes up with: fatal: Commit a00c0019ef859d52834bfd75f61046c5a7583650 is a merge but no -m option was given. I'm not sure what to put for the -m option. Should it just be a 1? One of the merges was for the new name I added in debian/copyright (a00c0019ef859d52834bfd75f61046c5a7583650). Do I need to revert this merge and readd the name to debian/copyright or should I just leave it as it is at the moment? -- Harry Rickards - ha...@linux.com Vote Lib Dem - Building a fairer Britain - http://libdems.org.uk _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
