Overview#

Ever asked Copilot to fix a file and it went in a completely unexpected direction?

No need to panic and reach for git checkout. The /rewind command rolls back the last change — both file modifications and the conversation turn.

Usage#

Run this in Copilot CLI:

/copilot> /rewind

All file changes from the last turn are reverted, and the conversation is rolled back one step.

/undo Works Too#

/undo is an alias for /rewind. They do exactly the same thing.

/copilot> /undo

Use whichever you prefer.

Things to Note#

• Only the last turn can be rewound
• To undo changes from two turns ago, you’ll need to revert manually
• Both file changes and conversation history are rolled back
