Of course. monotone is just refusing to remove them. > The "include/php" directory has an external php library. No sense in > having that in my monotone database. True. On the other hand, how is monotone to know that it's OK to delete that? In this case I guess a good way to do it would be to remove (or move away) certification/, then do "mtn revert certification" to restore the files that monotone thinks should be there, then do "mtn update". (GNU Arch had (presumably still has) a more subtle distinction between tracked files, junk files (that can be freely deleted), precious files (that are expensive to generate), and maybe other kinds (I forget). With that kind of configuration a VCS might be able to do the right thing, but I don't think that aspect of GNU Arch was very popular.) _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
