Magit: Can I reverse a hunk from a previous commit?

Question

If i'm looking at the log messages and select one specific commit to view the diff is it possible to revert (or reverse appply) a specific hunk of that commit? I know there is a revert commit option but i'm only interested in one small part of it.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, and it's the same key-binding whether it's a commit, a file, a hunk, or a marked region. Just type v with the thing in question highlighted, and Magit will prompt you accordingly.

it is magit-revert for those with non default bindings ;) – Sarina

@Sarina Actually, it is magit-reverse and not magit-revert. – Barbra
