        It's not, strictly speaking, "lost". It's in the repository,
waiting to be merged into their code.

        That's a lot to ask as a regular process to cover an edge situation.
After all, someone would have had to do a byte-for-byte exact change as
someone else (except possibly for line-endings) to have it lost by the
process Ben mentioned. One byte off and they would have ended up with a
conflict.
