# Undo changes in a stream or project

In the Visual Studio IDE, you can roll back the delivery of files and folders to a Dimensions CM stream or project.

For example, you deliver changes but discover problems in the code and decide to remove the changes. Undo creates a new changeset with the reverted changes that preserves the full history.

Guidelines for undoing changes:

- This operation requires the same privileges as deliver.
- This operation undoes an entire changeset, not individual item revisions.
- The original request relationships are not undone.
- This operation makes changes only in a repository and does not affect the items in a work area.
- After completing an undo, to synchronize your work area with the repository, run an update.
- You can run undo at any location as long as the changeset does not affect items further up the hierarchy.
- You can undo only a single changeset.
- If items in a changeset have more recent changes in a newer changeset, you cannot undo it.

Example: Assume that changeset 14 has the item revision f.txt revision #2, and that changeset 13 has the previous version of the same item, f.txt revision #1.

If you undo changeset 14, the revision in changeset 13 becomes the tip revision, and a new changeset, 15, is created with the change: f.txt revision #1.

To undo the changes in a project/stream:

1. Do one of the following:

   Action | Description
   --- | ---
   To undo an entire changeset | In the Dimensions Projects view, right-click a stream and select Changesets.
   To undo a specific set of changes | In Solution Explorer, right-click a folder and select Folder Changesets.

2. In the Changesets dialog box, right-click a changeset and select Undo Stream/Project Version.
3. (Optional) Select requests to relate to the change, and add a comment.
4. Click OK.
