For those of you using git, I wanted to point out that it is fairly easy to remove git branches. For example, I can easily remove a branch on my github repository using: $ git branch -d :branch_name I don't believe that is revertable. What is scarey is that this could be done on our 'origin' as well.
The ability to remove branches is a feature. I strongly encourage you to create topic branches for development work, then merge them onto the main branch, and then delete them. I almost never work directly on, say, REL9_0_STABLE or master, except for quite trivial changes.
I thought we had some hooks on gitmaster to help prevent accidents like inadvertent branch deletion.
I at least still keep rolling backups of the main repo. I'm sure I'm not alone.
