Ebuilds are never actually "lost". |

If you use gentoo's git repo for /usr/portage, you can always wind back |
| 10 |
the whole tree, or some subset thereof, to a state where the ebuild |
| 11 |
existed. |

It won't be well maintained, but that's the compromise one pays for. |

( You don't even have to use git for /usr/portage if you don't want to, |
| 16 |
you can do what I do occasionally and have an otherwise empty overlay |
| 17 |
with symlinks to a copy of gentoo.git at the desired point ) |
