Another reason to take advantage of this offer:
If you don't use a Monotone with graydon's latest changes in it (and
possibly when you do, since nobody but he actually can compile his
latest changes ATM), then as far as I can tell right now, when
attempting to propagate from .monotone.changesets to .monotone, WILL
YOU CREATE A COMPLETELY BROKEN REVISION.
(sorry for the shouting, but I'm hoping this catches people's eyes)
We need to examine this more carefully; I might even be mistaken about
it. But in the mean time, my suggestion would be:
-- commit to net.venge.monotone if you can
-- if not, commit to net.venge.monotone.changesets, after updating
to either ae39 (graydon's head) or 094b (my head)
-- in no case merge the heads of net.venge.monotone.changesets, that
just creates a new head that's even harder to merge.
-- don't do any big merges until we have a better idea what was
going on with the extremely broken data I think I saw Monotone
generate when trying to propagate from .changesets...
