Undoing all changes made in a session
Recently I managed to screw up some changes I made while editing live. I couldn't find any easy way to undo what I had done (although I have now fixed the mistake anyway). I can see lists of my changes but nothing that tells me what I can do with it other than view the changes.
So how do I go about undoing all of the changes made in a particular session?

Short answer: you can't.
Long answer: a rollback tool has been developed but it is somewhat complex to use and so it's better to use Potlatch to sort it out.

Okay, thanks. I thought I was missing something obvious!

Re: Undoing all changes made in a session
No worries. Revert does seem like it should be a standard tool but the size and complexity of OpenStreetMap means that revert cannot work like it does in Wikipedia, for example.
