How do I do the eqivalent of an 'svn revert' on a single file, on a
directory of files, or on all files ?
I found 'git reset --hard HEAD' but it seems like a hammer to crack open a
nut.
Many thanks in advance,
Aaron

This will use the state of the files from the index.
To revert to the latest commit, i.e. discard all your local changes of
particular files, use
git checkout HEAD -- <files>
