Admittedly, I based my comment on memory from past discussion on the list.
Also, I was referring to different remote repositories in particular (for
Andy's information).  Is it a fact that a child directory can be from an
entirely different remote repository specification (ie username, host and
repo dir) than a parent and recursive commands will work?  Even if this is
the case I would be wary of using this ability.
