Repo missing some history
« on March 24th, 2014, 01:25 PM »
I just discovered that I screwed up part of the SVN to GIT conversion of the Wedge repo.
I clearly remember deleting the /other folder from history, because it was renamed and other stuff, but apparently I used to have an /other folder at the beginning of history, which was then renamed to /root, but any files that are in /root at that point appear as if they were thrown into the repo without prior history (on November 1st, 2012 for the curious.)

Unfortunately, this includes install.php and install.sql, which are IMHO two important files.
I don't know what to do at this point... I still have a backup of the original SVN repo, but I don't know if it's worth converting it (again!) to GIT, and removing all history after November 1st, and then limiting the repo to the /other folder, and publishing that repo somewhere, as 'documentation' for those trying to blame some install history.

What do you think, guys..?
