I'll have a look into that --force parameter, but I've only ever changed localsettings.php .. Removing extensions/installing extensions: - I had to "svn checkout" some specific revisions, like after updating going back again, to actually have a working copy and so on - doesn't this mess up the system? - and what about the databases? E.g. some extensions needed some DB-adjustments .. I've always run the update.php and so on, but how does this work when you go backwards?
