Question around this Andrew. All of the edits and commits that were made 
in hs-dev are sync'ed to the master jdk8u forest. That's the standard 
team to master sync process that the JDK Updates Projects use.

Nothing should be lost. Is the master forest sufficient for your 
archaeology needs or am I missing something ?
