This is exactly what I did today; modulo change details. So in the worst case we're insensible in the same way. Our current definition of "integration manager" is probably "whoever feels comfortable enough committing it with only two sets of eyes on it". Actually, though, in this case I had an issue brought up by your patch - while you're at it, would you take a look at the assert immediately below the one you just removed? Looks like someone wrote dim*n_vars where they meant dim*this->n_vars()? > The only other thing I need is to be able to fetch from main repo in my > local repo, and I thought "git fetch upstream" would do the job for > that, but I get the error: > "fatal: > https://github.com/libmesh/libmesh.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack > not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?" > which is discussed on this page: > https://help.github.com/articles/https-cloning-errors > > But my git version is 1.8.0, so that should be fine.

This, I have no idea about - I switched my URLs to ssh as soon as I figured out how to upload the public key. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
