What's Wrong?

For 1-2 weeks, the "restore code and conversation" option does not completely restore the code.

From the feature's introduction until a week or two ago, it worked flawlessly. Then something changed, and now about 50% of the time the codebase is not fully restored. Unfortunately I can't pinpoint exactly what circumstances cause it to happen, or why some changes are restored but not others.

Maybe others with the issue can shed more light about exactly when and why it happens.

What Should Happen?

Code changes should be restored along with the conversation.
