Aaron,
bb: approve
Some comments/questions:
1. Are there plans for a --repo (or --shared-repo) to convert a
branch (say) into a shared repository?
2. As part of the recent implementation of switch for normal
checkouts, I put in a check for local commits which hadn't
been pushed to the (potentially previously) bound branch.
Should _check() do something similar when reconfiguring
from a normal to a lightweight checkout say?
Otherwise, this is really great. Thank-you!
Ian C.
