Description Milan Kubec 2006-04-03 15:02:46 UTC 
[release60]

The message when reverting modification in *one* selected file reads as:
"Do you want to overwrite selected files with their repository version?"
I think that message should reflect real number of selected files - this message
just confuses user who has modified and selected only one file. Before I got
used to it I usualy canceled the action and check what files are going to be
reverted.

I agree it may be confusing a bit. Maybe a little fix can be changing "files" to "file(s)" :) Well, but then there is a
problem with "their".

I am not sure, whether is more complicated to reflect actual number of files, or just find some neutral message.

However I think, this should be corrected.

This bug was reported against NetBeans IDE 6.0 or an older release, or against a non-maintained module. NetBeans team does not have enough resources to get to this issue, therefore we are closing the issue as a WONTFIX. If you are interested in providing a patch for this bug, please see our NetFIX guidelines for how to proceed. 

We apologize for any inconvenience.


Thank you.
