Tobia,

The MacVim repo is not based on the vim_extended repo (it was created
after I set up the MacVim repo).  There was a discussion on vim_dev a
while back regarding rebasing MacVim.git on top of vim_extended.git
which would simplify the merging of unofficial patches, but  I find
this dask rather daunting.  As far as I can tell, the only way to
accomplish this is to apply all MacVim.git commits as a series of
patches on top of vim_extended.git and this way I'll loose all dates
when each MacVim commit was performed (they'll all have the same
date).

If somebody were to tell me how to "merge" the two repositories whilst
retaining all original commit information from the MacVim.git repo I'd
consider doing this, but until then it is easier for me to simply keep
things the way they are.

Björn
