Went back to a previous state, condition, or owner; returned to how something was before.
From Latin 'revertere,' combining 're-' (back) and 'vertere' (to turn). Used in English since the 14th century for both legal and physical meanings.
In computer systems, 'reverting' is basically hitting undo—developers revert code changes constantly because sometimes you realize you made a mistake and need everything back the way it was.
