* fossil update trunk --- Nope, this just pretended like it'd already
done that.  Then status said the files were MISSING.
* fossil undo -- Nope, it thought it was in a good state.  Basically,
the removes happened, but then after that fossil thought *I* removed
the files.
* fossil revert -- This is what destroyed my work.  They were
uncommitted changes, so once I did this they were gone.  I didn't
realize it'd nuke them until it was too late.

So nope, this really did screw me over big time.
