Hi,

I raised it on the irc channel a few weeks back, but when the docs were merged into the main tree, the commit messages somehow got offset by 1 commit. Can't remember which way it went but I was looking for my big doc commit and it turned out to be the one before/after I found.

No idea how you'd fix it, but that might be why the commit below doesn't correspond to T16.

I'm quite annoyed with myself that I didn't at least save HTML dumps of the pages that I had access to see, but I assumed I could get the data out cleanly at some point in the future, so I didn't push as hard as I should.

This doesn't lose any history, you can just reset --hard HEAD^ to get back to the latest master commit - but it does discourage any further pushes of commits that get lost, because they won't merge or rebase very happily on top of the kill commit!
