i broke mozillabuild...
okay so me liking the idea of custom building firefox i downloaded a release build and learnt to successfully build it. afterwards i decided to move onto the more intense stuff, that's right.... nightly builds! so i start pulling mozilla central but then suddenly i have to go so i cancel it prematurely. next time i go on, i start the operation again and it says the folder is occupied! silly girl that i am i permanently delete the folder... later on i found out i should use hg recover but due to the now missing folder it won't work... what should i do?

Re: i broke mozillabuild...
Have you tried deleting the Firefox source code you got from hg and checking it out again?
I know that can be a pain because it takes a while.
