I really don't like the idea of the repository being stored in _MTN/ like
this.
Using ~/.monotone is quite a bit better, but it's not ideal. It would mean
that the repository would end up in %APPDATA%/monotone on Windows, which is
part of the user's profile that might be part of a roaming profile in a
domain, which would mean the repository would be copied back and forth each
time they logged in to a machine.
I'd prefer to have clone require a --db argument be supplied.
