In either case /gentoo could be removed. No, with certain operations you need to start giving entire paths if and only if you're not operating on the repo as a whole. | > One big repository is harder to work with. It's that simple. |=20 | With one exception, that is, sharing and merging within a repository | is a lot easier than between two separate repositories. Which is an extremely rare task compared to doing things like diffs and branch merges... --=20 Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Vim, Fluxbox, shell tools) Mail : ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm --Signature_Tue__12_Apr_2005_19_57_21_+0100_mVAVwOjCDSyI4=Ei Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCXBoU96zL6DUtXhERAlvtAKDHUEYGkEpU44nAoJ/4IwE5sjBslwCeKcRi /y37R+kt4lsFVOI44dPpm/s= =tXUU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature_Tue__12_Apr_2005_19_57_21_+0100_mVAVwOjCDSyI4=Ei-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
