I guess we should do this for all branches, including almost-certainly-abandoned ones like dev/rlittle with initial work on braille output. > > - if we tell new contributors to remove their lilypond-git dirs > > before the changeover, then tell them to run lily-git after the > > changeover, will it work? > > Yes, it will.
