Oh, we'd still _store_ it in _MTN, it just wouldn't be _MTN/revision that you'd want to edit anymore. (If you're intent on voiding your lack of warranty, etc.) You'd just have to open the file that said something like: ------------------------------------- format_version "1" new_manifest [b093271ee0cd01a64ce9d9dac7f18a26c51cde71] old_revision [948ef03159eb7837d98c69921fffa0efee460f64] add_dir "foo" ------------------------------------- and edit the "old_revision" line. -- Nathaniel -- Details are all that matters; God dwells there, and you never get to see Him if you don't struggle to get them right. -- Stephen Jay Gould _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
