Need to know how to recover the shell script!
Hi All,

I have a very typical problem and need you guys help

I was about to modify the content inside one shell script (sample.sh) and before doing this i took a backup of it. But the problem is this script didn't get any issue but while creating the new script i have given this content and saved in with other existing file name (sample1.sh) and it got replaced.

So i want your help in recovering that and i don't have any backups taken as such for this script or server. Is it possible to recover that script after modyfying the contents inside it and saving with the same name?

Please do reply at the earliest as it is breaking my head...

Thanks,

No backup == no recover.
Some editors keep a backup of a file like vim for example if the backup option is enabled in it's config.
