Ah, right, 'get_manifest_of' with no argument is assumed to be asking for the manifest of the current workspace. (What revision were you expecting to get the file list of without giving any argument?) The normal use would be to give a revision. (Not a branch, though the revision could be the head of a branch. Which you can write like h:branchname, except most automate commands don't take selectors, if you want selector expansion you can request it with 'mtn automate select' and then pass the output to get_manifest_of.) -- Nathaniel -- Eternity is very long, especially towards the end. -- Woody Allen _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
