We’ve got a situation where someone messed up a Commit to our SVN server. A lot of files were deleted, etc.

Question: What is the technique for making the previous (to the bad Commit) revision the HEAD revision? I’ve seen discussion here on SO for doing this for 1 file, but we’d like to make it like that last commit never happened. Any ideas?

All of these answers seem to be correct. I marked abatishchev’s answer as the correct answer simply because I’m using Tortoise SVN and it’s the method I actually used.

    Maybe you can show log, check previous revision (n-1), in context menu choose Revert to this revision and commit the changes (it will becomes n+1, where n is current bad head)
