Hi,

I am using visual studio with subversion svn. I was waorking on a project and some changes I commited last week.

Today I made some chages again , after some time I decided to go back to my commited state and it's fine, I reverted and got to the commited items.

But now I want to go to the stage before reverting the soulution. How can I get all the changes I made after commiting and before reverting .

Please help me guys , i lost a lot of things in reverting, How to go to the changes i made on files.

Thanks in Advance.

There is no way. You didn't commit your changes, and SV(and anything else) doesn't track uncommitted code.
When you check out and make some changes, all those changes are local to your machine.
When you revert, your local copy is being overwritten by server's copy.
So, you can see, server doesn't know anything about your changes.

Prerak, I'm not sure you understood OP. How do you know the code before revert was not committed? In principle, you're right. The rules are simple: you only really own the code which was properly committed. Consider all uncommitted code as just garbage which you can remove at any time. So, the current (hopefully valid) code should be committed before any further changes, including revert operation.

OP said REVERTED. It means, he didn't commit the code.
Today I made some chages again , after some time I decided to go back to my commited state and it's fine, I reverted and got to the commited items.

From this phrase, it's not so clear if OP did commit in between and just did not mention or did not. Perhaps you're right. OK, 5 for your advice.

I would only repeat my advice: commit every step.
