+A new `git annex proxy` command was just added that allows safely running commands like `git revert` in a direct mode repsitory.
+
+So, you might do:
+
+ rm myfile # oops!
+ git annex sync
+ git annex proxy -- git revert HEAD
+ git annex get myfile
+
+The sync is needed to commit the deletion, and then that commit gets reverted. Finally, you can use git-annex get to download the file from some other repository that still has a copy. (Assuming you didn't delete the last copy.)
