nice example. You say that a) "only the old a.c would be committed now under the name b.c", and b) "the effect would be the same as 'tla commit -- b.c'" This seems to be intuitively correct, but see what happens: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> tla --version The GNU Arch Revision Control System (tla) 1.3.4 tla--atai--1.3--patch-26 built on Jan 5 2006 Copyright 2003, 2004, 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. and contributors This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.

One of your claims above must be wrong. (I haven't tried this with your patch and '-x'.) What I'm trying to say is actually two things that I shouldn't have mixed in my previous mail: - The problem of partial commits is only partially solved. It would be nice to have a complete solution. - I don't see the benefit of your '-x' option. It introduces yet another partial solution to a known problem, thereby further complicating the user interface.
