title: Linux SVN recover files
body: <p>A recent update over unversioned directories removed a bunch of files. Is there a way I can manually recover these lost files? </p>
  
  <p>P.S. I cannot recover them from subversion, as the files I am looking for were never committed to SVN control. I have looked in the linux trash folder, which only contains files which have been manually deleted. </p>
  
  <p>edit: Actually, the files were lost through an accidental svn rm operation. Unfortunately I cannot use revert as the files I am trying to recover were newly created and not under version control yet. Any ideas?</p>
