# Git: Revert Commit Dialog Box

The Revert Commit dialog box enables you to revert changes made by a specific commit in history.

In the Revert Commit dialog box, specify the following options:

Element | Description
--- | ---
Revision | Specify the required revision by entering a commit ID, existing branch, or tag name in the Revision field or click Select to view the list of revisions maintained in the repository. The following fields display information specific to the selected revision:
Commit ID | A unique identifier of the specified revision.
Author | Name of a person who committed the revision.
Message | A message specified during the commit of the revision.
Commit Revert Changes | Select to commit the reverted changes to the repository.
Commit Message | Enter the commit message

After you click Revert, the IDE modifies the files changed by the commit and unmakes the changes that are pertinent to this commit.
