Note to self: spur is right. Backups are a good and important thing. This is directly illuminated by your issue today, which you cannot confirm is not your problem because you do not have a backup.

Write a bash/perl script for backup to GMail, or somewhere else, please.

You can add something like this to your crontab

$ tar -zcf - ~/dev | uuencode code_backup.tgz | mail -s 'code backup' something_or_other@gmail.com

Probably overkill, but someone hacked GMail to put filesystem on it (with FUSE): you can find it here.
