As in you do an 'rsync' to mirror it? I think that is the big difference
between us. I would not use rsync to mirror my local repo, because it
*is* full of all kinds of cruft.

But thankfully, bzr handles pushing just what I want. And, it means I
can do this on lots of machines, and have them all feed into the same
location.

I suppose you could also have a plugin which just detects what is in the
local repo, and synchronizes with the remote one. But that could work
with either of our situations.
