In what I'm suggesting, commits are local to a project's working directory repository and are pushed somewhere else to be recorded long term. Since projects are stand alone, possibly with dependencies, working on a (sub)project without having other associated (sub)projects is accomplished by checking it out. > A first step to this would be an argument to git-clone to allow cloning > only a subset of refs. Something like this? git-init-db git-fetch <repository> <refspecs> - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Thu Sep 28 13:48:35 2006
