Yes. I had noticed some hard drive seek errors at some point and immediately
replaced the hard drive. This happened around Feb 2007. I didn't notice any
data loss at that time, so just copied the old hard drive's contents to new
hard drive.

The revision 124 file was created on
$ls -al 124
-rw-r--r-- 1 rajulocal rajulocal 8755 2006-11-04 22:04 124
I make regular backup of the hard drive by synchronizing the files on this
computer with an external USB drive. So all I have is a mirror of my
current hard drive not a backup of old files.

I have a backup of the current repository. Any suggestions on how to
proceed?
