this happened to me yesterday too :
I expected the bzr revert to create the foo.bar.~123~ files , and it didn't
(fortunately I have the habbit of backing up before doing a revert, as I've
been bitten before)
I think we should find a way to make this easier, maybe do one or more of
the following:
1) have an option to revert to force it to make backup~1~ files when
changing anything
2) merge something like the heads into the core
3) dont just tell people to williy nilly upgrade i.e. give a better message
like Torsten said:
"You may wish to synchronize with the master branch with pull/push
before committing any changes."
If we can agree on some plan of action, I can look into implementing it.
