The patch in repoman just commits locally, it does not push. I suppose |
12 |
an operation or option could be added that treats that as if it were a |
13 |
single combined step, but I definitely do not want that as the only |
14 |
choice. |

There's still a lot of unresolved questions about the precise repository |
17 |
setup and work flow, so simulating it isn't entirely possible yet. |

One major problem with repoman+git is that a major feature of git is |
20 |
fast commits, but repoman is pretty slow (try a scan in |
21 |
x11-base/xorg-server). Anyone got a good idea for how to deal with this? |
