Summary
Add git-webkit revert <file-path>

It's really counterintuitive that we'd have to reset the file and then checkout in order to revert local changes in Git. We should add git-webkit revert <file-path> to emulate svn revert.

How would `git-webkit revert <file-path>` be different from `git checkout <file-path>`? `revert` is reserved for un-doing commits in git.

It would be different in that it also unstaged commits. There is also difference in that when you're in a merge conflict, etc... this command can resolve the conflict as we picked theirs-full. As we discussed in slack, we can call this "discard" instead.
