​Sorry you haven't been successful. For future reference I think it is good
practice where possible to verify a repository and take a backup of it
before any operation that might change it​. Full verifications of every
past backup session before each new session are impractical for most of us
however. I use my timedicer-bloat, timedicer-verify and timedicer-mirror
scripts for these verification and backup operations.
