[Monotone-devel] need some hints on reducing the inventory status to a single "most important" state for a ide

[Ronny Pfannschmidt]

Hi,

currently im adding monotone 0.38 support in Pida (http://pida.co.uk).

For the filemanager we got various file modes and i'd like 
to get some hints on maping the various multi-value states of the inventory to 
our modes.

We currently use the following modes:

normal: this file is just ok

none: this file isn't know
ignored: this file is ignored

new: this file is added
modified: this file is modified or moved

error: there is an error processing this file (vcs data is not parsable)
conflict: there is a merge conflict 

removed: this file is removed in the metadata, but still exists in the workdir
missing: this file is removed in the workdir , but still exists in the metadata

external: this file/directory is a reference to external repositories (only 
relevant for svn atm)

empty: this file is empty (its used on some vc's, it might go away)
hidden: this is a hidden file (its used on some vc's, it might go away)

I hope you can help me figuring a correct mapping.

Also feel free to sugest semantic changes of our modes, if necessary.
