The issue was this: You were at the tip of "trunk" but there is another branch ("ws-hybi-7") that starts at trunk. When you said "fossil update" without given an argument of what to update to, fossil tried to find the latest check-in in the current branch to update to. This computation failed due to the "ws-hybi-7" branch, and so it tried to update to "nothing". All of your files should have been preserved. "fossil revert" or "fossil undo" or "fossil update trunk" should have restored everything. Even files in your checkout that had been edited should have been preserved. If not, that is a totally different problem - please report it separately. > >> And no, nobody on my project actually did this.
