Yeah, this use case is not well supported. In my experience with the internal tool at Google, I don't think that anybody has ever requested that feature, so perhaps in practice it's not so common. I mean, who wants to review a 5000-line file once it's checked in? :-) The right point for such a review (certainly this is the case at Google) is when it goes in. > I presume the current site is for trial purposes.

Repository management is a bit of an open problem. Fortunately, when you use upload.py, you don't need to have a repository listed -- upload.py will specify the correct base URL, especially for repositories hosted at Google.
