My question is basically the same as Terry Reedy's, but I'm going to phrase it a bit differently: This is perhaps a naive question, but why do you create a second local clone instead of just creating a branch? -- Daniel Stutzbach, Ph.D. President, Stutzbach Enterprises, LLC <http://stutzbachenterprises.com>
