How to Undo in Replit

This tutorial shows how to undo edits in the editor and how to roll back your entire project to a previous checkpoint.

Note: Replit Agent automatically creates checkpoints as it works, allowing you to roll back your entire project with a single click. Also, when you use the rollback feature, you restore the Replit App to a previous state. This removes all changes made after that point, including code edits. Database changes are also reverted if you choose to restore your database.

1. Sign in to your account at replit.com and open an existing project or create a new one.
2. Wait for Replit to set up the environment, then click the Open Files icon in the top-right corner, click File tree, and select the files you want to edit.
3. To undo a recent edit in the code editor, press Ctrl + Z (or Cmd + Z on Mac).
4. To undo a larger change made by the Agent, open the Agent tab and click the history icon. 
5. Find the checkpoint from before the change and select Rollback here.

‍Note: If you rolled back too far, select a later checkpoint from the same history view and click Rollback here again to move forward.

      6. Confirm by clicking Rollback to this checkpoint to finalize the restore.
