Maybe how to create tracking clones for each branch if that is what people want to do. Personally I like branches as they help keep the tree cluster down and I don't have to think up naming schemes to help me remember what is what, but sounds like some people may like having multiple clones. > >> >> Also can we have something other than "unnamed repository" in the >> description file? > Okay, how do we change that? > >> >>> _______________________________________________ >>> xfs mailing list >>> xfs@oss.sgi.com >>> http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs >>> >> >> > _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
