6 Why wouldn't the last commit always be signed? We'd also need to update
7 man/portage.5 here, and it should probably mention the rational for
8 using a default other than 1:
9
10 .B sync\-depth
11 Specifies clone depth to use for DVCS repositories. Defaults to 1 (only
12 the newest commit). If set to 0, the depth is unlimited.
