> Yes, I did have a backup.

Some weeks back, a customer of mine typed something like

make proj=foo clean

To clean up his project. Except that he didn't. He typed

make proj= foo clean

The Makefile wasn't all that well written, so when it tried to rm -rf
./$proj , it did quite a number on the rest of his code.

No, he didn't have a backup. No, he hadn't checked his work into svn, as
corporate standards require.

I earnt many brownie points for getting his data back :-)
