=====Scenarios===== ====Accidentally deleted files==== Let's say that through community development on a repository, some files are accidentally deleted. How would we get the old files back? The correct collection of files is as follows: lab46:~/src/backgammon/queue$ ls Makefile create.cc destroy.cc queueops.cc lab46:~/src/backgammon/queue$ ===Check the log=== First, we should try and narrow down the range of revisions where the problem was introduced: lab46:~/src/backgammon$ svn log ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r353 | jbrant | 2010-11-12 11:19:40 -0500 (Fri, 12 Nov 2010) | 1 line clean up of /queue ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r352 | jbrant | 2010-11-12 11:18:25 -0500 (Fri, 12 Nov 2010) | 1 line clean up of /queue ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r351 | jbrant | 2010-11-12 11:16:54 -0500 (Fri, 12 Nov 2010) | 1 line clean up of /queue ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ... Through an analysis of the log, and having an understanding of the time range at stake (it was there yesterday), it would seem we have a range of revisions where this problem was introduced. ===list files in particular revision===
