 Damn...what complicated code.  Just spent an hours
 trying to follow the commit
 logic.
 
 Anyway, I think it comes down to TaskXrlItem
 
 An entry point to this code might be:
 
 template_commands.cc:
 int
 XrlAction::execute(const MasterConfigTreeNode& ctn,
           TaskManager&
 task_manager,
           XrlRouter::XrlCallback
 cb) const
 
 called from:
 module_command.cc:
 void
 ModuleCommand::add_action(const list<string>&
 action, const XRLdb& xrldb)
    throw (ParseError)
 {
 
 I cannot figure exactly how this ties back in, but I think
 all of this must be called from:
 
 master_conf_tree_node.cc:
 bool
 MasterConfigTreeNode::commit_changes(TaskManager&
 task_manager,
                
     bool do_commit,
                
     int depth, int last_depth,
                
     string& error_msg,
                
     bool& needs_activate,
                
     bool& needs_update)
 {
  
 Commands are added directly by some parser, probably of the
 .xif files or something like that.
 
 Probably would take enabling logging and then reading the
 logs very carefully to figure out
 exactly how it actually works.
 
 Thanks,
 Ben
