I would have thought that with the connections to the VCS-Home project or just in general this would be a more common setup. Having a repo with no remotes is one of the nice things about DVCs.

Or is my best option just adding a dummy url entry to my .git/config? -- John Eikenberry [ [email protected] - http://zhar.net ] [ PGP public key @ http://zhar.net/jae_at_zhar_net.gpg ] ________________________________________________________________________ "Perfection is attained, not when no more can be added, but when no more can be removed." -- Antoine de Saint-Exupery
