title: Subversion: How to restore a file with history
body: <p>My boss just ignored .vbp files and apparently deleted one of them from the repository in the process.  After explaining to him why he needs those files in source control, I am now tasked with putting it back.  </p>
  
  <p>Problem is I think that he might have added it back just after he told me to because now when I try to add it, it tells me it's already there.  But when I delete it from my drive and update , it doesn't get restored.  I'm afraid that if I delete it out of the repository and then add mine it's going to do the same thing on his end that's happening to me now.</p>
  
  <p>Ideally I would like to just roll back to what was there before this mess started but can't quite figure out the right way to do it.  I know we can't roll back revisions in subversion, but it would still be nice to get it back in there with the history it had if possible.</p>
  
  <p>Edit: Sorry, forgot to mention I'm using TortoiseSVN.  I can find the file using the log history, and I can check out a revision... but I don't want to checkout all the files.  I just want to get the one.  Still trying to figure out the best way to do this...</p>
  
  <p>I looked at using blame but I may have to read up on that option cause it's not intuitively making sense to me at first glance.</p>
