That was my point. For example, TortoiseGit presents "revert" instead of "checkout" (e.g. on a file, not a branch). "revert" in git actually means something else entirely.


Oh really? I used TortoiseSVN for a long time, and switched to the command line when I switched to git. I can see why TortoiseGit kept the "revert" naming, but I disagree about the choice.
