(First things first, please keep my cell phone -- mike-mobile@xxxxxxxxxx

more or less, crippled at the moment.)
Alright, so I have found myself in a troublesome situation. I had a
directory which I accidentally deleted (instead of an identically-named
directory in *another* directory) and I need to get it back; it was a
version control repository directory and contains ~150 revisions of a
project I have been working on this week. (Ironically, I was preparing to
back it up today, heh.)
Anyway, is there _any_ means by which to recover files from an ext4
filesystem? The utils for ext2 filesystems don't work (not surprising),
and I am wondering if there is a way to look for deleted files, knowing
what their name was, and recover them if they are not yet overwritten. I
have my home directory mounted read-only at this point so as to minimize
the chance of the latter, and discovered my mistake nearly immediately so
I hope that the data are still intact.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
