Agreed.
PS> Has anyone else noticed that if you have a really large config (we have 85 projects), tla build-config can fail after a while because "fork is temporarily unavailable". It seems to happen while it is forking sh (to run gpg) to check signatures. This is with a fresh build-config and nothing in the revlib, so there could easily be thousands of signature checks. Re-running build-config isn't really an option, since it moves existing directories out of the way. Hence at least one need for "tla-update-config".Is that on cygwin?
Yes, but I also saw it on Mac OSX (10.3). And I'm pretty sure I've seen it on linux as well. You need a really big project, though. I'm guessing it's some sort of threshold for how many spawns it has to do. Maybe when it wraps the 16-bit number or something. Actually, I got my package wrong. It is in jblack's tlacontrib called "update-config" (created by Dustin Sallings).
