-e

With this option, git revert will let you edit the commit message prior to committing the revert. This is the default if you runthe command from a terminal.

-m

Usually you cannot revert a merge because you do not know which side of the merge should be considered the mainline. This optionspecifies the parent number (starting from 1) of the mainline and allows revert to reverse the change relative to the specifiedparent.Reverting a merge commit declares that you will never want the tree changes brought in by the merge. As a result, later mergeswill only bring in tree changes introduced by commits that are not ancestors of the previously reverted merge. This may or maynot be what you want.See the revert-a-faulty-merge How-To[1] for more details.

--no-edit

With this option, git revert will not start the commit message editor.

-n

Usually the command automatically creates some commits with commit log messages stating which commits were reverted. This flagapplies the changes necessary to revert the named commits to your working tree and the index, but does not make the commits. Inaddition, when this option is used, your index does not have to match the HEAD commit. The revert is done against the beginningstate of your index.This is useful when reverting more than one commits' effect to your index in a row.

-S[<keyid>]

GPG-sign commits. The keyid argument is optional and defaults to the committer identity; if specified, it must be stuck to theoption without a space.

-s

Add Signed-off-by line at the end of the commit message. See the signoff option in git-commit(1) for more information.

--strategy

Use the given merge strategy. Should only be used once. See the MERGE STRATEGIES section in git-merge(1) for details.

-X<option>

Pass the merge strategy-specific option through to the merge strategy. See git-merge(1) for details.SEQUENCER SUBCOMMANDS
