No.
NAK on this one.
The fact that some idiotic SVN usage exists is not an excuse to break
long-standing git users. "revert" comes from bk, and quite frankly, I
object _very_ strongly to taking naming from something that is very
obviously the inferior system (SVN) over something very obviously superior
(BK and git).
Feel free to add other "helper" aliases that are actually _new_ and have
no pre-existing git meaning, but not things like this. Not breaking
existing git usage just because somebody is too stupid and/or lazy to try
to learn a new word.
