Yesyes you are totally right, I just tried to help with what I could, considering that I don't know them and use git directly. Personally, I don't think that those dev scripts are a very good idea, for I don't think they simplify a lot of things and that people may encounter bugs who can only be solved by using git directly. Plus there is something I learned from the notebook, and from Sage code as well too : you can *NEVER* trust any tool that the developpers do not use for themselves. At some point we discovered stupid bugs in the notebook that appeared when you wanted to print matrices, and that was during Sage days, the only moment when the developpers seem to use the notebook. And well, whatever the developpers use for themselves will be improved over time, and I really believe that what they only provide for users and not for themselves will always be broken, or unreliable. Actually, this all means that I will only believe in the usefulness of the dev scripts if we end up using them. In this case they can become totally cool things indeed. But well. Right now, the dev scripts have (necessarily) been developped by experiences git users, as a service to all others ^^; > If the current state of affairs is that the dev scripts are still > under construction, so that for the time being Sage development is > only possible by using git directly, then this needs stating very > clearly.

All the bugs that they *might* contain will have to be found and fixed, and doing so quickly can only help.
