Jeff,

 From your earlier note, it appears that you are only a couple of
revisions back. Which probably means that you backed up your old
repository while others were still committing to it. If you are
confident that you have a user with those latest changes, you can commit
the 6 files that were changed as 6 separate commits to bring the
revision numbers up. If you need more, it could be as simple as adding
a line feed to a file and then removing that line feed. Anything to
cause a difference to bring the revision number up.

Then the others should be able to commit as well.

Regards,
Frank
