> I can't tell you how many times I got burned doing merges in Subversion where the entire repo became corrupt. Earlier in my career, in the first week at one company I ended up corrupting the Subversion repo. I was a nervous wreck. My boss reassured and told me about he had also corrupted a Subversion repo previously as he restored the repo from backup.
