[teampractices] FYI: Phabricator workaround for reverting batch edits

[Max Binder]

As far as I know, there is not an official way to revert a batch change to
tasks. You can, however, capture the "?ids=" part of the URL in the prep
stage of a batch change (and not after, so when in doubt do it). If you
apply that to a Maniphest query, you get the IDs, and can save the query or
the URL for later use.

I just batched 234 tasks for the Reading Web team, and this makes me feel
much safer.

That method is currently only documented in
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Project_management/Tracking_tasks
If you think that info should also be under
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Help#Batch_edits
feel free to add. :)

Thanks,
