You wrote everything I was going to, and also something I didn't know :) . I always thought |
| 37 |
you had to invoke smart-live-rebuild as its own command and never realised that it also |
| 38 |
provided a special set. Cool! |

I'll just add to your second point that while you can operate within a bare repository (and |
| 41 |
some commands work directly, e.g., "git gc"), they are usually what you push to and fetch |
| 42 |
from (meaning that you don't need a special server to host a git repo, you can just put a bare |
| 43 |
repository on, e.g., a shared folder and use that as your origin). |
