Actually, no I cannot. I had to areset my system, therebye losing all my applications except what came installed on the system. That is how I noticed the problem in the first place.

Re: Ping Francis
Oops! I responded to Dennis by mistake. It's late. Hi Keith, I checked the latest commits on the Writer-Guide, Calc-Guide, Impress-Guide, Templates, and Getting-Started-Guide on the apache repository and they all match the latest commits on my local copy. I don't think anything is different on my local repository. The most recent commit is to the Impress guide on Feb. 28 and the most recent changes on Writer and Calc are on the 22nd and 24th. Does the problem you are seeing go back that far?

RE: Ping Francis
Keith, If you made the mess using GitHub, you can revert git changes. You might have to do several, but there should be some way to get back to a clean point. Francis, Ordinarily, you do a quick branch of the clone without synchronizing to the main repository first. Then push the branch back to the repo. That might create a lot of trouble. Keith would have to deal with merge conflicts in accepting your changes.. Keith and Francis, You have an unusual way of using branches for the AOO docs, so those standard solutions might not work in this situation. If Francis has commit privileges to the main repository, there are other solutions. I bid you good fortune. -Original Message- From: F Campos Costero Sent: Monday, March 4, 2024 12:40 To: doc@openoffice.apache.org Subject: Re: Ping Francis Hi Keith, I'll take a look at this tonight.

Hi Keith, I'll take a look at this tonight. I'm in the US eastern time at the moment, so within the next six hours or so. If I have the slightest doubt about what a commit will do, I'll post a message here so we can consult. I don't want to create any problems while "fixing" things.

Ping Francis
Greetings Francis; It seems that I totally screwed up the openofficce-docs repository the other day. Only thing that is still correct is the Getting Started Guide. Can you please recommit everything from your clone to the main repository except The Getting Started Guide. Thank you very much.
