C'mon Ilan use a bit of common sense. We can't put up warning signs everywhere to prevent people from doing really stupid things. 99.9% of the time you want to commit your deletion, because you know what you are doing.

That's what version control is all about. You change something in your working copy, when you are happy with it, you commit it to the server and everyone else gets your changes too. Version control also allows you to get back to a previous state. Even if you commit your deletion to the server accidentally (say in revision n), you can always revert to revision n-1 and get all your files back. You will only lose stuff, if you delete the repository on the server.

Cheers
