git's nice alright, but what makes me happy is your continuing to
maintain the repository AND keep showing up here to patiently
answer my endless newbie questions
oh and while i'm bowing and scraping, i'm really happy with the
relative numbers, i use them a lot, thank you

i update with my update script:
http://home.swbell.net/toothpik/.build/vim/u
it started out with with the same "M..." message i've been getting
for a week, showed me it was pulling stuff down, then ended with
the scary "fatal" message -- i will temporarily put the update
output here:
http://home.swbell.net/toothpik/update.out
forgive me please for misspeaking earlier: it wasn't the build
that ended with the scary message, it was the update
after today's update i decided to try a build in spite of the scary
message, thinking there couldn't be much of less importance than a
tags file -- i built with my "make reconfig" script because i changed
my environment from 'huge' to 'big' (i have never used profiling,
i'll go back to huge when and if i have a use for it):
http://home.swbell.net/toothpik/.build/vim/mr
i say the build succeeded because it created an executable that
worked and reported the new version number for :ver

i had thought the install called helptags in the production runtime
after installing, not on the .build/vim runtime -- i probably need
to look at that again
git diff shows:
diff --git a/runtime/doc/tags b/runtime/doc/tags

life is good -- the checkout made the 'M...' go away, and this
update brought New Stuff for my runtime (look mom! no rsync!!!)
