Thanks for reply i just make a list with all the revision lost (yes, i
check and found that lost others revisions too) and make dump files of
the "good revision".

Then i go to check what lost revision have in my backup to build a new
repo with all this and hope that work fine.

If this don't work, i just put my backup in the repo and make a commit
of my last "work copy".

Anyway.. i already have two new disk to make a backup with the post-commit
hook ;)
