Corrupted repository... help?

[Kelly O'Hair]

I just upgraded to 10.5 and had some issues with the latest forest extension and
Mercurial 0.9.5, but no corruption issues.
This sounds like a disk corruption issue, I'd run the Mac OS disk utility
and scan your disk for problems.

Did you do a backup before you installed 10.5?
