I wasn't talking about full-history. |

I was talking about the fact that we're distributing a bundle. If you |
15 |
clone a bundle, you won't have a remote for the live repository. You |
16 |
would need to add it, unless you plan to never push a commit back to |
17 |
the gentoo repository, and you plan to manually download bundles |
18 |
anytime you want to update your local repository. |

I'm not sure how exactly Robin was planning on making the full history |
21 |
available, but it sounded like it would also be distributed as a |
22 |
bundle. That means that you can certainly clone it - just type git |
23 |
clone path-to-locally-saved-bundle-file . If it is in some other |
24 |
format like a pack file then you would import it into a repository via |
25 |
a different command. |
