I have all the backups. I first copied the repository in question and pulled from Helix (which I use  as  my repository for collaborations)


Then I realized that I did a series of 

Hg strip operation, 

Five all together to get rid of these bizarre changesets of the form 2020-21//CV:matlab 


However, stripping those change set basically set my repo back to February so I pulled all the backups, but forgot to pull one important backup before  I did 
hg pull 89d30b14c3e1-dada9bf7-backup.hg

Now all is well, and I am relieved.

Thanks for your help.
