Hm? git has submodule support. You can pull to and push to a submodule. To make this useful with regard to Emacs/AUCTeX, the Emacs part of AUCTeX would have to be contained in a separate subdirectory. I don't know if Bazaar has anything akin to that. Any kind of automatic repository sync would require a compatible directory organization, and I somewhat doubt that this would be easy to achieve. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
