Tomboy sync treats the top-level manifest.xml as the "correct" one, and 
assumes that if there are later rev directories than they must represent 
failed sync attempts.  This should only really happen if you lose your 
connection to the server in the middle of a sync, or if some sort of 
error occurs in Tomboy (I don't know of any common ones at this point).

If your top-level manifest.xml does not appear to be up-to-date, then 
something has been going wrong during sync.  Let me know if this is 
really the case and we can troubleshoot your situation.

Best,
Sandy
