That's what I've been implementing. > Non-modified are just pulled from the pristine store. I don't see an benefit in this. Whether we copy from the pristine or the unmodified working we still have to make a copy. It might even be more efficient to copy from the unmodified working where keywords/eols are already expanded. Using the pristine would allow us to delay the copy but that doesn't seem to be an advantage. -- Philip
