None have been shown. I think there is opportunity cost for whoever does the commit. If that person is not the original programmer, the cost must be shared. It's natural for people to balk at sharing costs. For some situations (e.g., paying for a group lunch) there is more or less a social protocol for settling the matter. Here, there is no such protocol, except for thread-around-the-moon arguing. Personally, i just recently learned about "git-bzr" and, being in the same boat as OP, am resolved to try it out RSN. Maybe OP can do likewise, and we can coalesce our experiences into a suitable blurb under admin/notes/, to ease things for others. Surely that is better than continuing this thread. =2D-=20 Thien-Thi Nguyen GPG key: 4C807502 (if you're human and you know it) read my lisp: (responsep (questions 'technical) (not (via 'mailing-list))) =3D> nil --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlKa5MEACgkQZwMiJEyAdQLm4ACfewPyuTU1yKmUxvKRxTaT2nfE hj4Anjik344lhLwg+a2yIJIRqclMDzdy =Fcwi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
