I don't know how the original .suo file would have become hidden. I
didn't do a "dir" before reverting, so it's possible that it was
hidden at that point. Making a file hidden isn't something I'd do
myself though.
Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it.
If it makes no sense that this could have happened with hg, then let's
chalk it up to an unknown error on my part.
Chen, thanks for the heads up about not needing to track .suo files
anyhow. Yes, it's a Visual Studio "Solution User Options" file, and
it turns out to be binary. If it's not present, VS creates a new one.
I believe it stores things like breakpoint positions.
